Old street pics..

[Country Road]

View attachment 195851 View attachment 195852 The firm closed down in 1990.

Looking at the picture of it now, its nicer than I thought, as a youngster all I saw was the windows and what was in them. I had no idea what a great looking shop it was, that would be just as inticing today and not out of place on a high Street.
Thanks for the memories.

I knew the furriers in Calthorpe Road but I am sure they used to be somewhere else in the Five Ways area but I can't remember where.

Yes they had a shop prior to Calthorpe Rd on Islington Row it had a great diplay of wild animals(stuffed of course in the windows) there were about four or five windows for the display of animals and fur coats .
