I do remember it well. I used to have to go there to buy fire wood so my nan could get the fire going.

Written on the windows in chalk were offers etc. We used to rub out letters to make other words.

The shop on the corner was called Lindgards I think. It did sell a large variety of goods.

Don't think it was called that as it's too close to my surname so I would have remembered that
