Alf Ackrill - Artist
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Alf Ackrill was born in Sheffield, Yorkshire, one of nine children. When he was three years old his family moved to Oldham, Lancashire where he was to spend the majority of his life. The exceptions were a short period pre-war when he laboured on the railways in Surrey, and the war years when he served with the Royal Signals Corps in North Africa and Italy.
- His early life was one of abject poverty like many others of that time.
