Hello Peter and many thanks for sharing the above photo. I am the biographer of PC George Gutteridge and have conducted much research into his unfortunately short life with the kind permission of his descendants most notably Brian Alexander, ( who is very proud of his Scottish heritage), the first grandson of PC Gutteridge. Your father Alexander often worked with `Bill`Gutteridge at Stapleford Abbotts to investigate local crimes and I have included an example of this in my book, `Bill`s Beat`I will pass on the above picture to the descendants of Bill Gutteridge as I am sure they will be very interested to see it. With regards, Bernard
