ARTIST

W H Gleave was born in Lancashire and after his retirement took up residence in Poulton-le-Fylde where he became a well-known amateur artist, painting mostly Lakeland scenes. He was in his 90s when he died and his family allowed Dr Michael Haslett to select a few paintings from his studio, of which this was one, in thanks for his GP services.  Dr Haslett contacted the Friends of Lytham St Annes Art Collection offering this painting and others when he moved from his home in Poulton-le-Fylde to Lytham.
