“Opposite Gloucester Terrace, in Gloucester Street, was a grocers where you could take a cup and get a pennyworth of jam or a pennyworth of syrup straight from wooden barrels. There was very little tinned stuff altogether, the only food I can remember in tins was pineapple, sardines and tins of biscuits at Christmas. Every-body had fly papers hanging up in those days, they were a penny each and when you bought them they were in a roll with a bit of string on top. You held them over the heat, and as they got warm you pulled them out, then hung them up. They were sticky and the flies were attracted to them.”

Turn right into Trafalgar Street, and cross the busy A23 safely to Richmond Place before turning left into Albion Street. Look out for Nos. 4, 5 & 6 which all still stand.
