Im sure the corner property was Mr Cherries barbers, he then moved up onto Otley Road to just below the junction with Otley St. Mr Cherrie lived in Grassington, he also sold tropical fish from his barbers shop.

Maybe I am just getting old, but I can't help feeling sad that the 1950's and 60's saw so many beautiful old buildings demolished instead of renovated. I was born in '66 and would have protested at the time - if I had known how!

My Collins grandparents lived at 59 Newmarket St and I remember living with them during the war. They died in the 1950.s
