Many thanks, Phil, it certainly does! (pmc1947 eh? I was born that year too)
So my memory isn't too bad! But does Kelly's occasionally make mistakes, or was your initial posting placing Harry Beardes at # 443 taken from an earlier edition?
I remember when #449 wasn’t yet a turf accountant’s (as in your post #196), but as it was in the photograph in Post #199. I can’t explain why its sign says “Kenn’s”, in the late ‘50s/ early 60s the shop was owned by the family Talkington, and I’ve never seen the christian name written with two “n”s. Could someone explain this? David
