Jarmans - Station Road

My mum, Irene White, worked in Jarmans on Station Road - just where it joins Crouch Oak Lane. It was probably in the very early 1940s before she joined the WAAFs.

She told the story that her boss said you can eat as many sweets as you like, assuming that most people would get fed up with them pretty quickly - not mum, she kept her sweet tooth all her life.

RE: RE: Jarmans - Station Road

Hi Barry,

I lived in Station Road in the 1950s and 60s. Jarmans was actually close to the corner of Victory Park Road. My dad's shop was the shoe repairs near to Berry and Dicker
