The corner site was John Pickerings Coal and Coke Yard way back, then taken over By Bedfont Care Sales, still a car sales, but called Ashauto. By the way Budgens has gone I think it's a Tesco Express store..... Dave Brighton

My great grandmother Mary Ann Nunn lived at Shepherd's Cottages in Staines Road, in 1935 at the time of her death. Can anyone tell me whereabouts Shepherd's Cottages are in Staines Road?
