1950's Ruyton. John Guest commented in October 2022 "Today the village says goodbye to one of it's longest serving residents, aged 95. Alfred Dennis Corfield (always known as Den), was born in Frankwell on 27th December 1926 & was the youngest of 7 children. Whilst working as a bricklayer, Den came to Express Dairy on a job & this would lead to a job opening for him at the dairy, which was the start of his long employment with the Company. When he came to Ruyton, he played for Ruyton Rovers and is pictured here, with the ball, front centre." (Courtesy John Guest, Ruyton Revisited FB Group)
