This photo of Joe under a willow tree was taken circa 1949-50 at "The Coppice" which was Joe's father's place of employment where he worked as the gardener. It was a hall of residence for student teachers and was owned by the Leicester Education Committee.

'As kids we loved to go to the Coppice. There was an orchard and rambling gardens. It was such a contrast to the life we led on the Saffron Lane Estate.'
