The two photos were of the Coultershaw Mill entry in the Petworth annual procession. They were taken in 1951 and given to my grandfather Mr Ronald Barnet as he was a participant on the float which depicted the 100th anniversary of the mill. Photo above was taken just before the procession passes through the Petworth Park Gatehouse to assemble in the park.
Petworth Annual procession - The Mill 1951 - "farthest right is my grandfather Ronald Barnet from Coultershaw, next to him is Peter Phillips from Duncton, the left hand man I cannot say with any certainty but Roe is at the back of my mind.."
