Family heritage

My family is steeped in menswear heritage dating back to 1860. My grandfather ran Aldertons the Tailors, a successful London outfitters specializing in hunting tweeds, military uniforms and plus fours, until all eight shops went up in smoke one fateful night during the Blitz of the Second World War.
