Just realised your thread is called 1994 but here goes anyway..


There was a fruit and veg shop and a butchers shop on North Cross road, where they sliced bacon and cheese off the block and they had sawdust on the floor.

On Lordship Lane there was a takeaway chicken shop where Gelato shop now is.

Next to the Robert Carder shoe shop there was a shop selling old doors and antique fixtures, fittings and fire places and bits and bobs.

George Dourof owned the carpet shop.

'Carpenters'fruit and vegetable shop

took 2 shops up where GBK is now.

127 lordship which is now Olivelli restaurant was a bag shop called Haywoods, owned by Mr and Mrs Haywood in the 1950s.


Next door to the carpet shop there was a photographic studio back in the 1950s.


Rouiller White was a hairdressers and before that was a travel agents that did coach holidays.

Guess the fuel duty is a fine balancing act tiĺl enough electric cars have been sold to raise tax revenue from their use.
