Photos from a Joseph Kingham Outing, early 1950sCarole Ann Bartholomew has provided the following three photos taken during a works outing, destination possibly Hastings or Brighton.Every year, until the mid 1950’s, Kingham’s organised a day’s outing to the seaside, and several coaches were hired for the staff. I was privileged to be the only child allowed to go on these trips. I don’t know why, but I do recall we would stop on the way home at the half-way houses, where I sometimes played the piano for the sing songs which continued in the coach until we were all dropped off, usually as near to our homes as possible. If you are interested in the company take a look at Carole's write-up about Kinghams from its foundation to the late 1950s.
