Lillie Scales

Lille Scales was aged forty-six at the outbreak of war and was living with her husband in Hornsey Lane, north London. Both were lifelong diary keepers. As they had no children, they felt it their duty to house Belgian refugees, and their family and business connections with Australia led to them opening their home to ANZACs as well.
