Jenny Brough
A Memory of Kingston upon Hull.
Harry and Margaret Coupland (my Aunt) 1949/50s they had a market stall in Hull market. I remember visiting them, Harry had a large greenhouse in the garden full of tomatoes.
Son, Peter and wife moved from a nissen hut into a new house - they had a market garden at Jenny Brough growing sweet peas and other flowers for the market, can anyone remember them?
Also my father George Jennings he and Mum managed a working men's club in Hessle about 1940. 1949 they moved to Commercial Hotel Castle Street Hull.
