Pedleys
A Memory of Ward End.
Pedleys was on Coterills Lane, Bert, his wife, daughter Margaret, and his two sisters ran the paper shop. They also lived there. I collected paper money for them. Lovely people. I also came from Tile Cross before living in Cotterills Lane. There was also a chip shop, wool shop, grocers and Hopkins the butcher. The 14 bus would have stopped at the Pelham where lots of people traded, Ted Haynes greengrocer, Hunts the draper, Salts grocer, Hawtins the record shop and many more, not forgetting the Capitol picture house. We lived there from 1954 until the 1980s. I would fetch the Sports Argos for my dad on Saturday evenings, we would wait untill the van pulled up.
