C.M. White, Builder. Mill Road, West Mersea, looking south. Just beyond White's shop is the gate and railings of the Congregational Church. The shop to the left of White's is W.F. Hotson.
The White's first shop was immediately north of the chapel drive, as in this photograph. The shop was in the hands of Hotson when this was taken but Clifford White was still over the shop - it was there that he started his business. [from Alan Smith]
