Old Shops In Warwick

A Memory of Warwick.

I grew up in Warwick in the 1960s. These are some of the shops I remember from my childhood, nearly all of which are gone now unfortunately.
The Saltisford and North Rock.
Summers the  butchers, Maydays the bakers, Hobdays the sweet shop, 'Catherines', sweet shop, Mrs Moores toy shop, also another butchers, hairdressers and other shops.
Warwick town
Mr Jones the fishmonger, the Beehive - haberdashers, Pork shop, Vaughns  large toy shop, Elizabeths toy shop in Swan Street.
Ploughmans was our favoured grocers with a visit to the more upmarket Thackers and Christmas at Christmas time. Woolies of course, Caves pet shop, Elizabeths the Chef for cakes and opposite the old P O a small Tobacconists.
I think the Wool Shop was still there last time I visited along with the hardware store in New Street. The wonderful old hardware store whose name escapes me opposite the Wool Shop. Greens bookshop, Health food shop, several butchers and another fishmongers.
Hope this might bring back memories for others, there were so many more I haven't listed. Warwick was a thriving town when I was young with proper shops and shopkeepers you knew by name. Happy memories!
