    Thanks for all the comments. I've updated the caption to reflect them, I hope, but let us know if I've misunderstood anything. Still a few names to go!

    Number 4 is Jean Johnson and Number 41 is Janet Johnson.
    Number 19 is Teresa Gibson. If 26 is actually one of the Butcher boys he would be Freddy

    Caption changed following David Miller's comment. We originally had a date of 2012.

    The caption is incorrect. This is after my wife and I bought the Cottage in May 2013. I would say summer 2013.

    Hugh: yes, though not necessarily the house shown in this photo. Mary Sanpher appears in the 1947 school photo: http://stanhoe.org/gallery/picture.php?/119/search/86.

    The inscription on a book I recently acquired reads:

    Mary Sanpher
    Chapel Yard
    Stanhoe
    King's Lynn
    Norfolk
    Aged 11 years
    Xmas 194? Dec 25
    Would this be the address mentioned?

    I believe my grandmother lived at Church Farm about 1911 to 1915 does any body know any thing about this time my grandfather is named on the war memorial in the village.

    It seems from this reference: http://www.battleofprestonpans1745.org/prestonpans/html/press/experiments/chapter03.html that the PRHA was running the Hero in 1900, so the date range for this photo is probably wider than I'd thought.

    The PRHA (1897 to 1962) sounds a sensible – if paternalistic – organisation that sought to reduce drunkenness by requiring its managers to sell non-alcoholic drinks as cheaply as beer, and to provide food. In 1907 its president was the Bishop of Chester.

    @Max Breeze: thank you. The list of publicans I referred to in the comment below has James Brown listed for the years 1929–1937, so that's consistent with what you know.
