Hi only_me

 

The junk shop was at the bottom of the section of Harwood Street where it met Hill Street, opposite the Harwood Hotel pub (Chalie Ellin's).

Thanks for that, i remember the bloke who owned it having a commer van outside at the time.

Hi only_me

 

I remember the owner of the junk shop had "don't park here" or something similar roughly painted on his shop wall outside. Hardly anyone around there at that time had a car, but I think it was so he had access to the junk yard when there was a match on at Bramall Lane.
