BUGLE subscriber Mrs Jean Langford (nee Bennett) of Corrie, Kitwalls Lane, Milford on Sea, Lymington, Hants, was interested to read about her old Tipton school in a recent edition, and submits a class photo of her own from around sixty years ago.
She also sends in the following comments: “I was interested to read the article about St Mark’s School by J. S. Harvey (nee Freeman) in The Bugle No. 938. I lived in Toll End Road and also attended St Mark’s Church School, Spring Street, Ocker Hill, Tipton. The enclosed photograph is of the senior class, 4A, in the year 1950/51. Although I remember quite a number of names, I hope that your readers will be able to fill in the gaps. I am sure that The Headmaster was Mr Lockett, not Mr. Lockwood.
All left to right...

With best wishes Jean Langford (nee Bennett).
