Are we getting confused here????
We're looking for the connection between the Clover family and Cammell Laird and the connection between Ann & Edward Davies and Leasowe castle - yes?????

read somewhere Clover was a shipbuilder and there was a Clover dock in Birkenhead

Have asked various people about the motto on house - no joy yet

There was/is a Clover Trust registered to a charity which gave money to people who were in need within 10miles of Bidston village
Rang the person whose name was on it but spoke to his widow
who didn't know the meaning of the motto
May meet her at 25 Sept Bidston tour
