Hey guys does any one remember an old wool shop on connistan ave shop near windermere road and the ford estate. Would really like to get some photos. My nan used own it. Mrs Moorcroft
I remember it, but don't have any photos.
Next door to the newsagents? Or next door but one?
I think it was the postoffice on the left of the news agents
My nan loved that shop
went in there loads of times when mum used to knit .used to put wool away for you .mum used to send me to collect it.no photos sorry
really nice people still remember the place!! Nan said it was her happiest times of her life
I've lived in the area for some time and going back to the late 60's/early 70's , I think the shops at the top of Noctorum Ave ran as follows (starting at the wool shop)
Wool shop (now a hairdresser)
Newsagent
Chip shop
Grocer's (now a sunbed place)
Chemist
Another grocer(?) - I might be wrong here but now it's a betting shop
Butcher's (Diamond's I think) now it's a video/dvd hire shop
On the corner of Coniston Ave it's been an offy for years but I don't think it was originally-maybe memory is playing tricks on me.
