[Acc Wisden: His parallel career in football was ended by a broken leg. After the war, Dickinson moved to Torquay, where he became a pillar of the town cricket club, occasionally played for Devon, and was a driving force behind the Torquay festival, which thrived in the 1950s as a rival to Scarborough and Hastings.]
Ted died in Torquay on 24th March 2003 aged 89
