WE are on a detective mission today after reader Gary Beaudro sent in this old photograph that turned up among some family possessions.

According to a stamp on the back, it was the work of a former staff photographer of Berrow's Newspapers, but so long ago that any trace of the original would have disappeared now.

It was apparently taken on a plate camera, which were standard press photographer issue up to the 1960s and the venue appears to have been Worcester Guildhall.

It appears to be staff at Lea and Perrins' factory dining around 1957.

If anyone recognises anyone or has more information, please get in touch with Roni Skye on 01905 742265.
