Came accross this old photo of Irish road racers and would like some help with possible names the bikes I think are Triumph and Velocette ,the one on the far left was a butcher as far as I know and is one of the local Northern Ireland races.
No 35 is Stanley Gifford on a Velocette KTT.
Early 50s this was - the "butcher" occupation rings a bell but I can't place him.
Perhaps Enniskillen "100" or Cookstown "100" ?
I'll work on it!!

Thanks I have been asking around and some older retired racers have been racking brains as well and would like to let them know as it is a nice piece of nostalgia.somebody told me one of them but couldnt remember name after the conversation.Just said that the one on the left was a butcher by trade and that his daughter was living locally all the best and thank you again.
Local to where, gemmelstone?
