Horse Collar / Harness Maker


My family the Walkers were horse collar and harness makers in Rye. Their address was East Cliff Place, Fishmarket Road or Richmond Villas. Does anyone have any photos they could e mail me of these places. A relation said the sign is still above the house door.
Thanking you.

    Hi my name is Sharon and I was wonderng if you are related to or know of Bill & Joyce Walker from Rye, they moved from strood to Rye in the 70s I think. They had 3 girls born before 1960, one of the girls name was Teressa I think and a son was born after 1960. I would appreciate any infomation you may have on the Walker family.
    Thank you, Sharon.
