I can remember the shop well, both my grandparants had caravans on Mr Wakley's old site (the first gate on the left past the windmill). If the Greenaways shop (that was an old bus parked by the windmill) was shut it meant walking the extra bit to the caravan shop. I still have a photo taken by Selsey Photographic, Millfield Road (phone SELSEY 2604) of myself aged 13 with a shopping bag walking to the shop taken in 1960, when the our caravans were moved up to Ramparts, a beach-side site, further along West Beach, from about 1953. My Auntie Lou used to live in Mill Cottage for about 10 years, before moving to 115 High Street, Selsey.
