Malcolm FRANCIS Gloucester locations (General)

So the Church Army hostel in those days was on the London Road nr its junction with Great Western Road, probably conclude that he was homeless and probably penniless at this stage of his life.

This is circa 1951/52 ?

Over the years that I have been doing this (!), the traveller locations that I have encountered in census data etc, around Gloucester have been Sandhurst lane/Walham, and the Westgate Bridge to Over area. An area prone to winter flooding

Gloucester's Mop Fair also known as Barton Fair was held on the Oxlease /Over Causeway in the early 1900's
