Jack Phillips Cafe

On Muckers Island. Muckers house was pulled down (Rat Hall) and Mr Blott of May & Butchers erected one of the huts off Osea Island for his sister on the site. Then Jack Phillips took it over and had tea rooms there either late 1940's or early 1950's before 'Curly' Hiscock.

 01 (above) a great view of the Cafe and underdeveloped waterfront. Picture taken either at the time of ownership by Jack Phillips or the early days of 'Curly Hiscock'.
