Additional details sent to us by John Wilding

The unknown photo is of what was the Co-op in Parkend Road Yorkley. The lower
part on the right became the butchers shop and above the butchers became the
offices. The left hand side of the building was used as a warehouse for the
shop. I was born 2 doors away and in my youth broke the large window having just
been given a new cricket bat. My father was the bowler!! The building is now
converted into flats.
