Yes, it's at the end of the property. I did have a couple of pictures of the shop front, including the signs of both E.V.C Hardy & Geoff Bennett. I wish I could find them. When you emigrate, it really becomes difficult to locate many of your memories. I do recall going to Eric's home once. I've no idea where it was, but it was out in the country, at least it was country at that time. I'ts quite conceivable that I met your late husband at some point.thanks dave...must be a bit further down from the shop front then..
