The family at Pine Cottages circa 1950. Note Grandfather Lindsell's old Morris 10 Car

I would be interested to hear from anyone who may be able to fill in the blanks and may know how long Gladys served as a Booking Clerk at Liss Station. Likewise, if anyone remembers the EAGLES or the LINDSELL families and can tell me more about their time at Liss Forest, any information will be gratefully received.
