"The lady who planted "Stockport Yellow" was Mrs. Clarice Clayton.( I think her husband was Tom Clayton) I asked a local who said it was there when she was going to school in the 1940's.There were four roses along the side of the house in those days.The Claytons were an old Stockport family that no longer have any descendants living in the area.Tom and Clarice didn't have any children." - Hugh Tily
