I know this may be a shot in the dark but worth a try, I have today recieved a group photo taken in 1925, which has written on it 'Pegwell Home' be interested if anyone has ever heard of this place! Thanks - Linda

looks as though it might have been in Ramsgate/Thanet

Jess just had a look it does appear to be in that area, this picture has about 30 men on it so it may have been a working mans day out somewhere, at Pegwell!! Linda

If that's Pegwell Bay Linda, it's near Ramsgate in Kent. Jan :-)

Had a look round think the web. I think it may have been a Home for Working men, it suggests that the men in the photo were the benefactors who supported it. Will keep exploring Thanks for the guidance Linda
