While searching for more details on my Grandfather I came across your project. This photograph of his shop was taken shortly after he opened it. I remember being in my Grandfathers shop probably around 1948-50 and I can picture items of the bacon slicer and the cream shelves, Also the Metal tins of loose biscuits with the glass tops.(Chris Sturgess)
