 Skinningrove Gala Queen, the girls look pleased to be there but I am not sure about the boys. Dawn Holliday advised: “I was the Gala Queen featured in this photograph and I think it was in 1969 or 1970. The attendants were Pauline Carlin, Carole Stone, John Dowson and Neil Winspear.” So now we know we know: Pauline Carlin, Carole Stone (attendants), Dawn Holliday (Gala Queen), John Dowson, Neil Winspear (attendants). Babsy Holliday commented: “That’s my big sister Dawn as Gala Queen; I’m so proud of my dad Pem Holliday for all the photographs he took of the village that meant so much to him.” Image courtesy of the Pem Holliday Collection, thanks to Dawn Holliday and Babsy Holliday for the updates. |
