Having been born and living in Milford till I was 18/19 years old I remember this shop, probably from 1969 when I was about 5, my mum used to do the delivery driving for them at one time. I loved going to the shop. I used to walk just across the road as we lived in the cottage opposite the pub (White Lion). I had a best friend who moved there after Mr and Mrs Blake left, Stephanie Parsons was her name, we used to play in the rooms above the shop, and had a real good time.
My great-grandfather lived in Burchett Cottage, Millfield. Can anyone tell me where it was or if it's still there?
I was around 5 years of age when my family moved into Mousehill Stores, which would make it 1973. We lived there until I was 9 years old and I still have great memories. I remember steep wooden stairs from the kitchen to an open room above the shop this area was another store room and I can remember hooks still hanging from the beams. The hatch for deliveries still worked and opened out towards the the main road ...see more
This picture is of Mousehill Green, Milford. You haven't a title for the picture, so I thought I'd let you know. I remember it from 1953 onwards, but this picture obviously predates that. The green was often used for fairgrounds. The shop by the road was the Delicatessen, now a craft shop I think, not sure though.
