Cobblers Shop

A Memory of Swallownest.

My father Richard Bradbury owned the shoe repair shops in swallownest. In 1946 with is war service savings he opened his shop on high street Sheffield . Which when he moved became the Halifax agency. In 1957 he opened his new premises at 45 Worksop Road opposite the cinema.
He sold land next to his new shop on which was built a butchers and Lentons new TV shop and around the corner he sold the land to bring the Post Office to Manvers Road.
You might say he started a new small shopping centre on Worksop Road.
Anthony Bradbury (his son)
