He lives around Halstead apparently - anybody know him?
Currently doing a jigsaw with one of his paintings - love to know where the location was..Stansted maybe?

No, the sign is wrong and it's on the wrong side of the road. |  |

That's better. The right sign and the correct side of the road!
In all seriousness, it is interesting the sign is the same (aside from evening sun compared to daytime) despite the clearly older painting. | |

That's a nice photo, unfortunately I suspect it's not going to help me finish the trees and sky! | |

My mum spent many years as a youngster in Halstead, and in fact got married at the Baptist church there. Malcolm would have been two or three at the time.
If she were alive, I could ask her. |  |

Definitely not Stanstead - I can't recall what the pub was called but it definitely wasn't The Dog And Duck. |  |

I had to live in Halstead for a while.
Rotten place to live.
A bit like Deliverance. |  | | |

Malcolm is one of the loveliest chaps you could ever hope to meet.
His steam train paintings calendars have been staple items in my house for well over a decade. |  | | |
