Hungerford Arcade has been especially pleased to see our old friends since re-opening. It is so wonderful to see familiar faces and catch up with what they’ve been doing during the months of lockdown.
We were delighted to welcome back Peter and Sharon Allen, who came from Brighton on a day trip to see us. They are regular visitors and had stored up a lot of supressed retail therapy as they left with boxes of items from a dozen different dealers!
Peter is a military historian and retired member of the Royal Naval Reserve. He has a particular interest in the Royal Naval Divisions of the First World War. His website, https://friends-of-the-royal-naval-divisions-in-ww1.co.uk has interesting information about the items in his extensive collection of memorabilia. He is a great raconteur who researches his finds and has a wealth of fascinating stories to tell.
