My Grandmother, Mrs Nancy Pinfield

My nan lived at 59 Alcester Road with her second husband, Jack Pinfield. I remember visiting when I was a child and have fond memories of them both. Mr Pin (as we called him), cycling off to work at Needle Industries every day and taking me fishing at weekends - happy days!
