Hi,
Can anyone tell me about the shop on the end of Banning Street,
the one owned by G Weaver?
Does anyone know what was sold there?
Any info on G Weaver himself?
Thanks.

My Dad said a woman named Molly King lived in one of these streets, and sadly died very young in tragic circumstances. Anyone remember her?
