Rectory Road

A Memory of Hadleigh.

I lived in Hadleigh from the late sixties until 1982 - The name of the sweetshop  in the parade on the right was Hunts but we nicknamed it "the post office" as there was a small post office at the back.  Other popular sweetshops were Hampsons, and Pontons. Davis the bakers was next to Hunts with a great mural/photo of wheat on the wall. The Market shop was on the left with the awning and sold all sorts of bits and bobs  - Choice is still there and takes up about 4 shops now. I think the Supermarket was a Liptons.
