Phil ,Eric,
The chippy that Dancing Queen mentions was owned by "Mrs Annie Holland" and was three doors down from Ellesmere Road. I believe it is now part of a Kebab House restaurant.
I particularly remember the one in Highfield Road as I lived in Harts Rd from the 40's to the early 60's , so I passed it regularly .
A tanner for a bag of chips wrapped in newspaper and saturated with salt and vinegar and a penny for a bag of scratchings , which , if you were lucky , might even contain a small chunk of fish amongst all the bits of batter and fragments of over cooked chips .
