The person in the second row 6th from the left or 4th from the right behind the seated men is my uncle. His name is Alan Judson Hill. He was part of the family firm along with my father Cornelius Judson Hill and their younger brother Keith George Hill. The family firm was a nursery Woodlands Nursery opposite the entrance to Rushpool Hall. The name of the firm is A Hill & Sons which still prospers at Station Nurseries Stokesley.
See the website of the company which includes a short family history.
