My Grandad owned Griffith Funeral home on Liscard Rd.Does anyone have any memories of it?
On a funny note, when it closed down after he died,it became a 'body repair centre'!!!

The kiosk was opposite the park entrance at the top of Church Street, near to the Kings Arms.

The 1938 Kelly Directory doesn't give it a number, but it is after No 68, between Falkland Road and Church Lane.
