Butchers
To the bottom right of the picture looks like a butcher's shop, I started my career in the meat trade in the same high street but a few shops up in 1975 as a boy! I think that shop with the two butchers outside later became Muffetts wet fish shop.

Salfords Memories Of A Small Boy
We lived in Salfords from about 1948-1952, at the top of Honeycrock lane. Yes Angela, you did pay in the cubicle in the butcher's and the baker's shop was Cakebread's - very appropriate. I went to the old ...Read more

The next business was that of Pilcher & Son, butchers and greengrocers. Beyond that was Trickey's Domestic Stores - 'the handiest shop in Alton'.
At one time, many areas were served by vans such as these, an effective 'home delivery' service provided by butchers, greengrocers, bakers and others, long before the Internet came along.
The building on the other side is still a butcher's, but the White Hart Hotel run by Louis Zissell has closed.
On the extreme right is Zetland House, next to the Ship Inn, and a few doors below is a butcher's shop, with slaughterhouse behind.
Dewhurst the butchers are on the corner of Sheepsgate.
The Old House dates from 1612 and was originally a guildhall for the city's butchers. More recently it housed a branch of Lloyds Bank, who gave the building to the city in 1927.
On the left is Kerrison the butcher's ornamented shop front, with a refined iron balcony overhead.
Besides numerous shops within the building, there were over 60 butchers' stalls or 'shambles'.
Dunster's High Street was built wide to accommodate markets, and at this point it once held a row of shambles, or butcher's shops, in the middle.
The Infantryman memorial is still central to this view of the Anchor Inn and Bailey's the butcher's; note the little child passing the unmarked post office.
The building falling down was Well's butchers, since cleared for the Loders Arms car park.
The Midland Bank occupies a small but distinctive stone building next door to Mill Bay laundry, and Myners the butcher's uses the ground floor of Tremayne House (left).
On the left, just out of view, was the old butcher's shop and pie factory.
This photograph looks southwards along South Street from the Cross Keys (left) next to butcher Arthur Lewis and cycle agent Charles Frederick Fooks. The cart belonging to the former is moving off.
What a pity that F Sole went in for being a family butcher when the name would have better suited a fishmonger!
Originally one of four market crosses, the Poultry Cross, at the junction of Butcher Row and Minster Street, is the only one to survive.
Opposite is the premises of W H Lewry, the High Street butcher, which remained in the family until 1999.
The one-time butcher's shop was, at the time of this photograph, an antiques shop. It would have been known to H G Wells when he was a boy at the nearby stately home, Uppark.
We are again looking south by Ernest Tyrrell's butchers shop, with Flinns the cleaners next door at No 42, and beyond the next shop is the entrance to King's Garages.
The butcher's, nearest the camera, is certainly attracting window-shoppers. Just to its left is a cafeteria.
Notice how the butcher's shop has obviously just been repainted. Mr Mason (?) still stands by the door, meat still hangs outside the window, but the sign has not yet been replaced.
