Here's a question based upon something I discovered by chance yesterday:
Which former Torquay United player is commemorated by a bench in Tessier Gardens, St Marychurch?

Although not knowing the answer, I would suggest Ernie Pym, being an ex-St Marychurch player.

This player was locally-born with a strong village connection. That would be Hele village. No relation to the Essex lad of a similar vintage who was once roundly abused outside his own tuck shop by a young gentleman in a TBGS uniform. |

There's an interesting assortment of benches in Tessier Gardens including one in memory of somebody who managed to be a father, grandfather and wife. Some mistake, surely? Maybe that's why it's "adults only"..... |
