Does anyone remember bradshaws grocery shop, on hyde park and also the thrifty shop , there was also a youth club on the pavement too

There is another thread on here about Hyde Park where I mentioned Bradshaws.

I don't remember the thrifty shop though.

it was round by the rent offices near the bridge (towards the plimsoll pub)

I'm sorry lagerlil, I thought the rent office was the first place under the big block that was nearest to the crows nest pub.

What year are you talking. I lived on there from '76 to '82

the Crows Nest Pub, the Bookies and the rent office were all pretty much side by side, on the HPF,starting from the lift shaft at the pub. With the former co op (?)in the corner, a hairdressers, and a freezer shop, Sue's "corner shop" (which wasn't really on a corner)and a (GT? ) newspaper shop on the very end of the row of shops.

The "Hyde-away" Youth club and social centre were next to the paper shop and ran along the landing that led from the shops to the bridge to the block with the "Plimsoll" on it.

The launderette and the park gardeners club were one level underneath the shops, and then there was a clothing factory, one level underneath that, and some garages hidden away beside the factory in the very "bowels" of the flats. the garages didn't house many cars, they were mostly storage for the council, especially furniture that had been abandoned in the flats whwen residents did a bit of a "Moonlight Flit".

Did there used to be a clinic between the Crows nest pub and the rent office?

I also remember one of the shops selling wool and baby clothes.

i can remember the thrift shop round the corner from the rent place it was opposite the lifts there was also a dentist there as well.

grew up on bevis row above cop shop and phone boxs.spent loads of time in hyde away youth club.

hiya jane 2008 the rent office moved the other place near the thrifty shop bridge in 1983 , will ask my mum what the old rent offices became i have forgotten

there was also the original park gardeners club above the launderette which you could also access down the ramp where hyde park terrace is,there was a wool shop , and the newsagents was the last shop on the pavement

there was the hairdressers below the thrifty shop, and the drapers shop was called audreys! you could buy wool, clothes and a selection of things in there.

Newsagents was called Stuchburys,

I used to deliver paper for Stuchburys.

the newsagents was owned by the fella who later owned the one at the top of granville road, and the manor top, cant remember his name. i lived on the terrace and used go to the youth club, there was also a dance on thursdays at st johns church around 1974. (GOD I FEEL OLD NOW)

the guy who owned the papershop was (surname) taylor, that was in the 70s on the pavement shops

No, it was Manor hardware store, just above chippy where Martin Kemps are now. His mate owned the flower shop next door.
