Does anyone remember the little sweet shop on the Tilt.  I do, and remember walking home from St Andrew's School in Cedar Road, along the little alley onto Stoke Road, across to the Fire Station and up towards the Running Mare.  The  little shop sold sweets and ice lollies and buttons!  The Frith photo is great, it shows the cottage that was the shop and is now a cottage again.

RE: RE: The Tilt

I used to walk the same way home, and lived opposite the Sweet Shop that was there from the late 1960s.
