Memories of High Street c1965, Outwell
The Shop to The Left of The Picture
The shop on the left was, from 1900 to 1950, a sweet shop and newsagents. First owned by Fennel and Means, two single ladies. Then the Coxs bought it and moved the shop across the road to the right of the picture. Then it was a barber's shop, violin maker's shop and now it's owned by an Eel Catcher and Willow merchant. The terrace was built in 1774.

Mason Family
My great great grandfather, Fred Mason was born in Outwell, Norfolk around 1859, he had a brother, john Thomas. It is believed that the family ran/owned a laundrette business. In 1880 he married Jane Ann Yates from Rostherne Village, Altrincham, cheshire. Why he and his brother moved to cheshire is unknown. still looking for any information.
