New Romney - photo request
« on: Friday 24 July 09 10:41 BST (UK) »
Is there anyone in [or near] New Romney where there is a short street named Daglish Close?
Richard Rothwell Daglish was Mayor of the town in eight years between 1885 and 1907 and a photo of the road sign would be an amusing addition to a family archive.
Many thanks if anyone can help.

Yes, thanks, I am a contributor on that site.  Sadly the photo of the sign there has a bit of scrap paper or something obscuring the name, and I know the chap who took it will not be around NR soon, hence my request for a better version.

Many thanks for the offer.  I have never been to New Romney, but hope that Google or satnav [if you have it] will guide you to the road sign.  I am sending a pm with my email address.
