The side of the property
was the location William Aldous "Bakery"
Notes: William Aldous (the
baker) was the son of my great grandad who had 4 boys George
Charlie William and Jack.
George and Charlie were both killed in the 1st World War
in France.
William had 2 daughters, Mary who worked in Mr Mynots shop
and Evelin ( Queeney) I think worked at Smallbridge Hall
and a son Roy who is in your "Bures at War" page
receving a welcome home letter it gives the address as No3
Nayland Rd it is actually No15.
Roy is my father, now Jack had a son Charlie who untill
his retirment was the Postman in Bures and surrounding areas.
Charlie and his family lived in Water Lane while his dad
Jack lived in the house to the left of the school in Nayland
Rd.
