The workers name is Richy Thomas, a well known singer with a great voice. He lived next door to my Nain, and we could hear him practising each day in the 60s.

Thank you for your comment. Have you (or your friends) have further personal reminiscences that you wish to share here. How about photographs or even sound recordings of Richy singing to upload to the People's Collection.
