There was a large department store called Marshall & Snelgroves in New Street, which was bombed during in the war. It was sited near to Corporation Street not far from where British Home Stores is now.

But i remember seeing the placenext morning,
after it was destroyed by the bombing
Does anyone have a photo of the frontage of the old Marshall & Snelgrove store in New Street?

I remember a shop called The Don, also on New Street. This was a menswear shop and they specialised in school-uniforms. My parents nearly fainted when the realised how much my new George Dixon Grammar School uniform was going to cost them... Rather up-market, but they were overtaken by the changes in men's fashions in the 1960's. Big Gee
