The reason is that I was born in number 13 and although my parents moved to Skegness shortly afterwards, my father often spoke of his work in the billiards part of Shodfriar Hall - this was in the early 30's.<br />Back to the photos - so far, no luck so perhaps I could repeat Billy's plea - any photos of the Lane would be welcome!Brian Townsendnoreply@blogger.com
