More about this scene
A hundred years or so before this picture was taken Park Street was already a street of shops. In the 1850s Harry Grove the chemist was the place to go for Grove’s tonic tincture which ‘will relieve most acute pain instantaneously, arising either from a carious tooth or soreness of the gums’. Other businesses in Harry’s day were Barrett’s the tailors and general clothiers; the unfortunately named W Rotten (Junior), fish sales- man and dealer in game and poultry; George French the auctioneer; and William Gough, saddler.
