Thanks very much for that, K. Some interesting shots of the locality.

I'm intrigued to know what the wording would have been where the 'T' is on the building to the right of Eassom's chip shop in Redhill (another shot below for comparison) That building as I knew it was Mr. Holmes' grocery store.

My mothers family had the bakers shop in Arnold, Ellis bakers. It was in the building now occupied by Birds. I have the wedding photo of my grandparents taken at the back of the shop.
