Lincolnshire Born and Bred - 28 January 2012 13:20149868I'm not too sure, Kath. J. W. Randell - spelled with an ...ell, is my great great grandfather and lived in the mid 1800's. In his day the RN were probably using flags as signals, and running boats made of Wealden oak.
As a shipwright he must have been responsible for keeping the fleet in full functional service

Lincolnshire Born and Bred - 30 January 2012 14:05150273Thank you Kath for the early photographs of Snargate Street, they are wonderful, it's like a window into the past. The Smye Rumsby/Our Lady of Pity photo are amazing, I wonder if any of the original wall paintings etc are hidden behind plasterboard.

Roger - 30 January 2012 18:46150376Sadly not Barry - the building was just a shell when they got it in the 60s, the old remains inside is the old parque flooring in some of itBeen nice knowing you :)
