Silver Street 1955
A Memory of Kettering.
I first started work for Colliers Cabinet Makers in School Lane and as an apprentice I had to go for the cakes and biscuits at a bakers shop in Silver Street which was situated just around the corner from School Lane.
When this picture was taken, I was in the Merchant Navy and when on leave, regularly purchased a suit from Burtons' "Fifty Bob Tailors', which is just in view to the extreme right.
The street has not changed much physically during the past fifty years or so, but some of the old pubs have long disappeared.
