Lillian Peach

George Henry Peach and Lillian Peach were attacked by an intruder at their home with a hammer as they slept in their bed.

They were found there by the proprietor of the Three Horseshoes public house when he called at their home to deliver some meat that a butcher's roundsman had previously tried to deliver on the morning of Saturday 25 October 1952. It was said that the butcher's roundsman had tried to deliver the meat but had got no answer at the cottage when he had knocked and so had left the meat with the landlord of the Three Horseshoes public house.
