Shooting brake body by Dave Norquoy.
The Inn, St Marys
The Steelwork in the background is the remains of the Strond Cinema. There were two wooden sections, one on each end making it half as long again. The Nissen underneath was used as a cinema at M9 battery Cleat.

The Dave Norquay could be my father, he worked in Marwicks garage after the war. He was very knacky handed, which unfortunately he didn't pass on to me. The nissen hut was used as a coal store by Buchans shop for many years.Jock Skea stayed in the Inn cottage and the Sinclair family in The Inn when I grew up in Holm

Yes Dave it was your father, He also worked at the garage for years before before the war. He played a big part in the manufacture of the Corona washing machines, and in the making of the loader, photos of which I will put on the site soon. Yes Dave was a topper !!! Ron
