echo beach   578 #13 Posted July 19, 2021 Bought my girlfriend a gold bracelet, like the old fob watch chains, with a heart shaped catch from Leslie Cass on Surrey Street in 1970 for her 18th birthday. Must have been appreciated as we're still together 51 years later!  echo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Leslie Cass had a shop on Surrey Street (next to the Montgomery Hall) in the 1960s and 1970s - he also had other branches in Sheffield as shown in the 1973 list. Was that McKenzie shop on Arundel Gate next/near to the Claymore pub ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I also knew the watchmaker there who had previously worked with me  at English Steel but cant remember his name. Anyone remember them?
