gone but not forgotten
Does anyone have information about a jewellers from the first decade of the twentieth century called Leathers?
 
I assume that is William Henry Leather and Son, manufacturing jewellers 11 Pitsford Street. Listed in 1915 Kelly's directory.
Also in 1895 directory without the "and son" at the same address
1940 directory still lists them but at 23 (back of) Great Hampton Street.
 
Many thanks, that’s great. My father and uncle worked there before enlisting for the army in 1914 but I couldn’t remember the firms full name. Naturally I didn’t think of looking in a trade directory
