I think the little girl on the bottom right with the black hair looks a lot like the young Elizabeth Taylor.

Re: Old photographs
Great picture Patsy, are you sure that's not you with the skipping rope.
This old photo was taken about 1952 and there's a story of how we got hold of it, there's always a story isn't there.
One afternoon two summers ago a knock came to the door and Phyllis answered it, a strange man in a hat stood at the doorstep and asked her did she mind if he took a photo of the house (it's semi detached) as he lived next door when he was a boy, she called me out and as he seemed a nice fella I said OK to take all the shots he wanted, he did and he thanked the wife and me, he said he had an old photo of him as a lad in his mothers arms taken at our gate and as he was a retired fireman living in London he would send it on to us, true to his word he did and to Phyllis's surprise she's in the photo leaning at the railings, she was a little busy body and still can't mind her own business.
