Pen Hall: A rose by any name
Penny's dad, Peter Tangey, is back to talk about another Newstead identity, Pen Hall. Under various names Pen appears frequently in newspaper archives from the 1920s and 30s. But do these articles match Peter's recollection of her living the quiet country life with Miss Moss?
(Christina has announced that Hall and Moss gumboots and tiaras will be on sale in the new year.)
