Hi Segilla, The Amos JAMES 1902-1971 is my Uncle, his wifes name was Gertrude (Gertie). The house they lived in on Blakeney Hill was almost set into the hillside, as the back of it was always very damp, the separate garage to the right of the house I am sure used to bear the name Gibralter on the side, but these recollections date back to the 1950's. Auntie Gertie certainly was a little strange at times, but they always made us very welcome on the few occasions that we were able to visit them, as we live over 200 miles away, and in those days didn't have a car. Are you in any way related to them? I was born on Viney Hill in a bungalow called Welwyn which is still there, but moved away from the area when only a small child. Joan may have been right about Gerties suspicions as my Dad said that Uncle Amos was a bit of a lad!
