Toy Shop
A Memory of Barkingside.
From 1964 I occasionally took the No. 691 bus from Ilford to Barkingside to shop. I used to buy my toddler son a Matchbox car from a toy shop. He didn't talk a lot but within a couple of years he could name most of the cars on the road and was particularly enamored of the car transporters that we saw on the Eastern Avenue. The first one bought was a white Volvo which forever after became 'Saint's Car'
Can anyone tell me the name of this shop? It was at the lower end of town, furthest away from Fairlop Road and the cinema where the bus stopped and on the left-hand side of the road.
