For those who don't know,These premises were opposite the Court Cinema.
Halliwell's was still there when I started work in King Street in 1968.
I think Halliwell's was there till about the mid 1980's, the Turnkey was in the same row though out of shot.
Halliwells bottling plant and depot was in Wilcock street Wallgate
