Once again we see a typical weatherboarded Essex cottage. Further along the row is an attractive thatched house. Horses outside the post office give a rural air to this scene.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

This was a large dark place, all timber with a climb up the steps to get in and the floorboards creaking as you walked toward the counter. In them days I couldn't see over the counter but I remember the shopkeeper although I can't remember his name. To the left in the photo, the last building, that's where Brian Sergant started business with his plant hire, it is still running today but it is situated in Bush Fair, Harlow.
