West Bromwich Market

A Memory of West Bromwich.

Date is circa: I remember the old man inside the old market entrance selling newspapers, he was always there it seemed. I seem to remember an old lady there too, perhaps selling flowers from a huge basket. Am I correct or is my mind playing tricks? The Dance Studio over Burtons Tailors - this is where I went to dancing lessons with Mr Patterson the dance instructor. This was in the early 1960s. Happy memories.

You're not dreaming.
In the late 1940s Burton's had the ground floor, at Dartmouth Square. There was a second floor and a third floor both were used as snooker/billiard halls. In the early 1950s the upper floor was converted into a dance floor called the "Minuette", and was used in the 1960s for a short period by Jehovah's Witnesses.
