Hello,

The picture is of The Swan Hotel, Cinderford. I remember that winter very well, although I was only 8 years old. Everything was at a standstill because of the big freeze.

The buildings opposite include a garage. These were all pulled down in the late 1950's and in their place is the Spar, there was also a confectionery shop, a fruit and veg. shop, butchers and a TV rentals. Some of these may have changed ownership over the years.

Regards

Margaret Baldwin
