Yes, I remember the one at the bottom of west bar, can't remember what it was called, but the window was full of guitars, saxophones and cameras. There was a model shop down that way too, near Brook Shaw's Ford and Carrs Motors.

 

Good old days a walk down "cliffe" you could get anything

I remember buying my little leather bag and gloves for my wedding outfit from Spiers a ladies handbag shop on the high street, it was quite an expensive shop and definitely only for special occasions, well for me at least .

Just Micro - someone must have mentioned them by now I must have missed it!

 

Roadhouse records at crookes.

Lots of banks and building societies. Martins Bank on Eyre Street, near the junction with Hereford Street - if you walk past you'll see the night safe is still there. It was taken over by Barclays in 1968.
