The Bishopric c1960
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

Throughout the 1950s and 1960s my father, Patrick Scullion, known to many of his customers as Jock, was the family butcher at 8 Bishopric. I was his butcher's boy around 1960 delivering orders on the trade bike on Saturday mornings and Tuesday after school. I also helped to make sausages which were second to none! I well remember Milledges to the right of our shop which sold newspapers and toys and the little grocers to the left run by a spinster called Miss Carcas. The back of our shop opened onto the yard of Piggotts, a hardware store, and I used to slip in there and watch them cut glass.
