Rosemount
A Memory of Oxton.
I used to work in a greengrocer's shop on Rosemount in Oxton. The shop was owned by Mr Samuel Wharton. He had a sister (I can't remember her name) and her husband owned the butcher's shop which was also in Oxton, although I can't remember which road it was on. It may have been Christchurch. When I first started working there, I was very nervous of the customers because they all seemed so posh to me, a Tranmere girl, but they were all very friendly and made me feel very welcome. Although Mr Wharton was the owner, the shop was managed by a lady called Barbara May, who later became Mrs Adams when she married her fiancee Fred Adams. I worked there for about 3 years then went to work in another greengrocer's shop on Borough Road.
