Old shops, 6 & 7, 2 July 1967. It was in 1856 that this little grocer’s shop was opened by the grandfather of the last shopkeeper, Miss G.B. Hall who had to leave when the premises were taken for demolition by the Corporation as part of the Somerset Street redevelopment. In the tiny garden behind the shop was a sycamore tree about 80 years old and one of the piles from the Chain Pier which had been here since 1896.
