Alfred Ridley was the brother of my great grandfather. Alfred Ridley was born 1871 in Nutley, Sussex and I have his death listed as 3 Feb 1931. He married Patience Ann Osborn, born Fletching, Sussex in 1873. The landlord of this inn was Alfred Ridley up to 1937. Alfred and Patience's oldest son was born 1893 at Upper Dicker, Sussex, so perhaps he took over after his father? The postcard shows the inn, and most probably Alfred and Patience. The people were named in a written note, but I am not absolutely certain from looking at it closely whether it might be Alfred and mother rather than Alfred and wife. Patience was called 'aunt anne' so maybe ann was the name she went by. Patience's sister Fanny married Alfred's brother Spencer (my g grandfather). *

George Orwell apparently lived next door - the author of 1984, and many other brilliant novels *
