Station Sawmills
The workers at the Station Sawmills, Pocklington,around 1945-1950. The proprietor was E Wells of Beverley. The Manager was G Robinson. My thanks to John Eastwood for supplying me the photograph, the newspaper clipping, and the names. I have hopefully matched up the names correctly. If anyone spots a mistake, please let me know.
