Chris's late Grandmother Ellen, was born 100 years ago on 22nd June.
Ellen was an indomitable guiding light, with a love of classical style. During World War 2 she trained as a skilled engineer in Sheffield and later became a secretary. Her creativity was put to good use at the luxury Skipton store of Brown Muff and Company of Bradford during the 1970s. We also greatly miss Gran's scones and other home baked delicacies.
