Orphaned photos: Clarke distaff

Like other people with a loft full of old photographs, I have the problem of many more faces than captions to go with them. If you think you might recognise any of these sepia tinted old timers then please give me a shout. Even if you cannot put a name to a face, it still helps narrow the possibilities if you spot a photo you have.

If a location is not given then the most likely place is East Anglia, between Norwich and Lowestoft. There may also be shots in London or Eastbourne.

Higher resolution scans on request.
