Can't get better provenance than that Marjorie... I liked Lady Kenyon... who I met quite a few times in my youth, I'm shamed to say it was in the local magistrates court where she chaired the bench. Both of them give a lot of their time to Hyde. I think they lived on Chapel Street. I saw Lady Kenyon whilst shopping in Hyde, many years after I had been in front of her on the bench, We were both queuing for Veg, at Crabtree's Fruit and Veg stall in the mall. I said hello and she responded likewise, then she said she recognised me from somewhere, and I explained where and how we had met. She give a knowing smile and said she knew that but had not wanted to embarrass me.. We then had a nice chat.. she was a lovely person, but was known to be quite stern at times.
