Landlord Edgar Pennick outside the Yorkshire Grey, the photo probably taken just before his retirement in 1939.
Edgar had gone to sea as a young man but also worked at Paxman’s in Chelmsford before taking The Six Bells, at Boreham where he had his own blacksmith’s shop and forge and classed himself as an agricultural engineer as well as an Inn Keeper. This joint occupations continued when they took the Yorkshire Grey in Coggeshall which they kept for 33 years.
