Oak Street |
As former resident, Hubert Dunthorne recalls; Oak Street and Wells Road had a wonderfully thriving business community that catered for almost every daily essential. A host of businesses and services along the busy street included; a Butcher, Baker, Greengrocer, Tailor, Shoemaker, three public houses, a School, a Builder and a Carpenter, and even a midwife to help you into the world, and two undertakers when the time came to depart! With everything so conveniently at hand; there was no real need to venture into the town centre.
