My husband Rex is the grandson of Alfred Shuttlewood Landlord of The Green Man 1912-1914 then, Alfred died age 40 years, Annie died two years later age 46 years. I have a family photo taken outside at that time. The Green Man used to have the same picture on the wall in the bar 30 odd years ago, I am still trying to find out who the baby in the pram is as Arthur was the youngest born 1908 I thought. ***
