I believe that the building in the right foreground with the spire is Eustace G.Parker's, where I was an apprentice watchmaker from 1965.

RE: RE: An Apprentice

Yes, it was. If you look at the photo you can see that it says PARKER. They always had adverts at the local cinemas.

RE: RE: An Apprentice

It was indeed Parkers - my 'aunt' (my mum's friend) Ada (can't remember her surname then, but it was later Mayer) worked there as a secretary for many years.
