    maybe part of larger shop.

    History

    In 1865 the shop was a Linen Draper's run by Mr Christopher William Wiseman, but in 1932 in the Kelly's Directory it had Stead and Simpson Ltd running their Bootmakers and Shoe shop from here. During the 1950's the shop was knocked through into 145. The International Tea Company Ltd had moved in and the shop operated as a grocer's. The picture on the left was taken in 1998 and shows the shop as Irene's House of Flowers but in 2016 the shop became Vin-Tro, Vintage Collectables.
