PENZANCE MARKET JEW STREET

As a boy I must have walked up and down Market Jew Street hundreds of times.

In particular I along with friends would visit the local Woolworth's where we liked to partake of various flavoured "Milk Shakes" Later during our teens a special treat was to go upstairs at Liptons where we would indulge in a cup of tea (we felt very grown up) then look down on local girls passing by.

Despite the war we were a happy band and made the most of the circumstances at that time.
