Yes I think where the Pyramid carpet shop is, is what used to be crown engineering, and i think the co-op was where the Photographers is now

.Anymore thoughts, and do you remember the little market that was near the newsagents ?

Before the Crown house/Pyramid carpets building was built there was a Doctors house and surgery there, Dr Kay I believe, and yes before Tesco's it was CO OP Laundries..

Any one remember Dunk's pawn shop at the top of Woodseats road or Mr Rounds new agents opposite The Chantry ?

Yes you are right, I lived on Olivet Road, went to Wooseats School.

I went to Doctor Kays surgery.

I remember the laundry, I was a paper boy for Mr Rounds.

Do you remember the wooden sweet shop at the side of the ploice station?

I've seen photos but I'm a new comer I moved to Woodseats in 1964 when I got Married ..

[mickdalewood 10]

I remember Mr Rounds paper shop, next door was Bullocks a sort of tabbaconist/sweet shop and used to have a cigerette machine outside if it was closed. Anyone remember what we called yes loves the herballist which was opposite Gleesons now Voice

[grinder 10]

If that's the place I'm thinking of on the few occasions I went in there there was a very nice Lady in a white overall with white hair who owned the shop ..

When I first moved here the bus stop was higher up on the other side of Woodseats road out side a sweetshop called Churches.......
