Does anyone please have memories or photos of the bakery that was in High Street, Mitcheldean run by Ivor Davies? He was there in 1947, having already established his bakery there after been bombed out of his bakery in Coventry. Ivor was born in The Morse, Ruardean in 1905, and apparently was a miner before going into the bakery business (which he learnt from an existing baker in Mitcheldean before leaving for Coventry). His father was Alfred William Davies, a miner whom I know little about before 1902. Alfred (possibly aka William) was married to Daisy May Florence Gibbs in 1902. Any information would be gratefully received please. Thank you.
