If you have any memories, stories or photographs of this wonderful building, I would be delighted to hear from you. Please email me at updates@weddingtongrove.co.uk
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.
