About this memory

Ruby Bell.

“Mrs Ruby Bell outside her new house in Kingsknowe Crescent – just after her marriage in 1937 – with a very large garden. [She] had lots of help from her father who was a professional gardener [and] had a large family who helped to dig and plant lots of vegetables and fruit – all had fair share of the crops.” – Christine Bell [2008]
