In the 1960s, next to the Greyhound P.H., was a butcher’s shop called Calver’s after Horace Calver, who set it up, The photograph shows his cousin, Arthur J. Daniel, who managed the shop and became the proprietor when Horace Calver retired. Ed Lee believes the photograph dates from 1963.
After being a butcher’s shop, it became Beryl’s Woolshop and then Ann’s Bakery until eventually becoming a private house.
Ed Lee is married to Arthur Daniel’s daughter.

This butcher’s shop was originally owned by Mr.King who, with his family, lived in the house situated behind the shop.
Before Calvers, Mr King ran this as a butcher’s shop
Absolutely lovely to see our dear father at the height of his career and looking so happy
Brings back very good memories. Such a good father and I wish he was still with us now
Rest in peace Dear Father, not a day goes by without thinking of you
