RE: RE: SADDLERS, WEST STREET, FAREHAM

You are talking about my late father's shop. You may wish to contact me. I have still have his old tool set for leatherwork and repairing tennis rackets, etc. He retired in 1975 and died in 1995.
I have photographs and samples of his original leatherwork. He went into the family business based then in Winchester. The shop opened sometime in the 1950's I think
