Cliff Ton 10,467 Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 I didn't know the area back then, but anything would have looked better than the council office monstrosity which was built in the early 70s. One bit of old Carlton in that film has survived; not demolished but also not redeveloped. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
radfordred 6,284 Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 What a cracking clip pity it dropped off the board with little all no interest, I've found you need to time your posts try between 3 & 5 in the afternoon when the gamers take a nap? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nick clark 2 Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 To clarify about this film. My dad shot it in 1970 and I edited it in 2009 and posted it on YouTube. Since then it's done the rounds and come back to me several times. His shop, Rutherfords, is featured on Burton Road opposite the new development and you can also see, very briefly, the company shop on Victoria Road Netherfield. Alan Rutherford who founded the company, is credited with pioneering a video recorder that the company sold as early as 1965. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
loppylugs 8,429 Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 I remember Rutherford's well. I worked for the competition, Clarks of Netherfield. Often bought records at the Victoria rd. shop. when I could afford it on an apprentices wage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AfferGorritt 868 Posted March 19, 2019 Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 Nick, I have this vague idea at the back of my mind, that the name Harry Rutherford and that shop is somehow connected to my family, the Brooks's of Carlton. Any bells ringing for you? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,467 Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 The old buildings - which had been derelict and empty for some time - on Burton Road have finally been demolished. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
