Greenham's The Butchers & Brewer's The Grocers

Broad Street c1955
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

In 1954, as a 17 year old cashier bookkeeper, I started work for Mr Greenham, whose butcher's shop was near the top of Broad Street.
Some years later (in 1958), I went to work at Brewer's, the grocers, further down Broad Street. My boss there was a Mr Vaughn, who I think later returned to Torquay. I enjoyed my job at the grocers; at first I worked behind the counter, and when the cashier left I took over her job. I had been born just outside Lyme, and during my working days there, I met many nice people and had some happy times.
