Pictures marked '*' by Lizzie Udall for which grateful
acknowledgement is given
I would like to express my sincere thanks to
both Gemma Reid (the last licensee of The Fox & Crane) and Ben Dodds for their
help, time and patience in answering my questions and allowing me access to the
building, at a time when the closure of the Fox & Crane was having a major
impact upon their own futures.
