Hi,

Can anyone remember the name of the supermarket that stood roughly where Mand S is now located? It was there in the early 60s and is the first supermarket I remember.

Thanks

Brig

My earliest memory of any supermarkets in Queens Road were FineFare and Price Rights (who had a shop near where Holland and Barrat are now )

Fine Fare had a great cafe upstairs above it. This later beacme a dancing school i believe.
