Biography[]
Elsie Allcock was born as Elsie Hall on 28 June 1918 in Huthwaite, Nottinghamshire, England, UK. It was the tail end of the First World War. King George V was still the king. She has seen two world wars and two royal coronations all from the comfort of the two-bedroom terrace home in Huthwaite.
Allcock left school at the age of 14 and stayed at home to help look after the family following the death of her mother, Eliza, who died from pneumonia in 1932.
When she married Bill Allcock in 1941, they both decided to continue living in the house with her father.
In 1960, Allcock bought her childhood home for £250. Her father, Mark Hall, who worked as a coal miner, had started renting the house for seven shillings and sixpence in 1902.
In 2025, Allcock was hospitalised with a knee injury, but was discharged after a period of recovery.
