    History

    No173 can be seen in the above picture as it was before it was torn down for the road widening. No173 was previously the Dolphin public house up to the 19th century but in 1865 Mrs Susannah Porter was shown as working from there as a Dress-maker. Once the building was rebuilt it belonged to a George Cooper in 1932 but the Kelly's Directory didn't say what the shop was. But in the 1950's it belonged to a Tailors shop run by Mr H. Freeman, before conversion to flats.
