Does anyone know who this guy is?

I went to a pub in Cheshire there were two photos on the wall either side of a fireplace. One was of Randolph Churchill, although the local pub bore said it was King George V, the other is unknown.

Any ideas?

Sorry had to delete - I Created a Flickr account which displayed my email address NOT just the photo.

The pub itself may know the answer if you were to call or ask them.

No, the two times I visited they did NOT know - the second time I visited I actually spoke to the owner. He wasn't aware that the other photo of Winston Churchill's father. Thanks

Above is the photo of Randolph Churchill, the Pub Bore was insistent that it was George V. I was able to do a google search and find the exact photo.

That's him. Thanks very much...…. Incidentally, how did you know? To be honest, I've never heard of the guy. I'll have to do a bit of reading up.

Thanks again.

I'm confused but there are a lot of clever people on this forum. What problem, exactly, are you trying to solve here?

e: never mind - problem solved!

I know because I am Edward Stanthorpe! Taking that photo you have released my soul trapped in that portrait for over a century! That is the honest truth, under no circumstances did I crop the image to include just the portrait and use tineye to do a reverse image lookup.
