Can anyone remember the name of the greengrosers that used to be on duke street underneath the flats opposit the park hill flats in the 60s/70's.I think it was owned by two brothers? one was called Albert. they also had a green van which came round the streets selling veg when i lived at Gleadless.:confused:

Remember the shops, used to be a fishmongers by name of Quirk, greengocer had a son who died when he was young, about 10 -12years old.
Can't for the life of me remember the name though.

Only greengrocer van / lorry I remember was Fountain brothers, they used to rent a lock up on Grafton Street, opposite Park baths.

Just been having a look on Picture Sheffield, cannot find a picture which I can see a name of the businesses.

The only green grocers I remember on Duke Street was Norton's. They were on the left hand side - going up - next to a fish mongers.

I remember the fish and chip shop on the Pavement but never knew the name. Blaskey's also had a shop on there for a while. There were many more shops but just what their names were are a mystery.

I have a better recollections of the shops on Duke Street before Parkhill was built: Remember Gallons, Sandler's the mens shop. Berry's chemists, to name a few.

Don't forget Judy Burgin's Entry. That was in there somewhere.

Regards

Dempseys the gents outfitters.

On the raised level above the chippie:
The barber (I assume the fittings, wood paneling etc. came from an older barbers shop)
The optician, the reason I wear specs :(

Sorry to the OP for taking the thread of course

I remember the barbers on park hill called Duggies he was there till the end when all the shops closed down,quite a caractor.

He he Duggie could really multitask, cut hair, smoke and drink a can of ale ;)

I remember the old guy who had the shop before him, seem to remember at one time the shop had three chairs and two barbers!
