More about this scene
Situated in Princess Street, Miss Matty's teashop could once be found above Cecil Harrison's, the chemist in the centre of the picture. Obviously the clientele at the time did not need any encouragement to stop for tea - there is no apparent sign for the teashop anywhere in the photograph.

The Knutsford Freeholders who had 'ancient rights' for grazing etc.. over the Heath (and, of course, to hold fairs thereon - especially the May Day) had to go to the High Court to defend these rights.
