Notes Peter Spicer was born in Folkestone in 1930 where he lived until the evacuation of Dunkirk when his family moved to Tunbridge Wells. As a boy he went to watch his fathers friends at work, many of whom were craftsmen in various branches of woodwork. It was in their workshops that he learnt his woodworking skills, during this period, he has access to antique furniture and the restoration of antiques. On examining these items, he was often disappointed in the standard of workmanship in the backs, interiors and bottoms.
