Many thanks to you all.
She looks grand now, in her Sunday best!
My mother will be thrilled to see such a clear picture.

Hi Poppyw.........I put the photographer's name into Google and found he was based in Landport so I was able to fill in the missing piece in the address.

colour version
GUIDE FOR PHOTO RESTORATIONS PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SCANNER BED IS CLEAN AND SCAN AT A RESOLUTION OF 300-600 WITH THE SCALE AT 100% MINIMUM.

If you would like a coloured version, details such as hair colour , eyes and clothing etc.  if known  would be helpful to restorers

Regards Roy
