Shared Memories of Spetisbury

  Year: 1953 The Village Post Office Stores
My parents bought the shop in 1952 and ran it until about 1965, it was then a very busy, thriving business, which served many of the outlying vilages.
I was just 6 when we moved down from Wolverhampton and so had many happy years of village life.
Amongst my friends were Peter & Stuart Fricker whose parents ran Frickers Bakery. I only wish I could buy their bread today. It was the best.
Sid Sweatland & his wife (can't remember her name)ran the Railway Inn, with their three daughters, Sheila, Denise & Francis.
Regards to anyone still living there that remembers those days.
