Quorn Old Boys – Late 1980s/early 1990s

This is probably one of the most recent photographs that we have included in Quorn Village On-line Museum, but it is particularly interesting as it was taken at a gathering of ‘old boys’ from Quorn, an event took place each year, organised by Walter Turner. The ‘boys’ all knew each other as children in the village and met at the Bull’s Head (known as the Quorndon Fox in 2013).

The following can be identified. Can you help with any more names?

1 – Tony Sutton
2 - Ray Golding (originally thought to be John Stirling, but we are now almost certain is Ray Golding. can anyone confirm?). Also thought to be Johnny Brown from Freehold Street - more information required!
3 - Richard Gamble
4 - Dick (Richard) Kearl
5 - Steve Halford
6 - Adrian Wormley (? probably - or Tony Harris or Ray Hardy?)
7 - Ron Brown
8 - Keith Billyard (maybe?)
9 - Phil Bumpus
10 - Terry Hallam
11 - Stan Freeman
12 - Tony Berry
13 - Dennis Orton
14 – Stuart Turner
15 - Alan Gunby
16 - Cliff Newton
17 - Richard Wesley
18 - Derek Howlett
19 - Michael Smart
20 – Stuart Thompson
21 - Mick Edwards (from Orchard Estate)
22 - David Bentley
23 – Barry Caunt
24 - Albert Gatehouse (nicknamed Booky or Booty?)
25 - Sam Seal
26 - Alan Wastnage
