xrh...yes it was! Moved there in 1945 and it was a second hand furniture shop...Dad also rented the two next to it and did well until about 1950 when HP came out and no one wanted old stuff!
he let the other two go and turned the end one into a fish/fruit and veg shop eventually building it up to a full grocery shop.

I lived there until I got married in 1960.


Blowers was deffo the first to be like a supermarket.....my Mother went balistic as so many of her customers went there to shop for a while....she used to say "Bloody Blowers!" She sent me to shop there just to see what it was like!
