At the time of this photograph the shop was operating as a grocer/general dealer. In 1858 Robert Henry Gardiner was a grocer here, by 1890 Mrs Alice Henderson baker and confectioner, 1910 Mrs Ellen Chambers, confectioner.
A complete change in 1914 with Charles Underwood Hendry a boot and shoe maker, 1934, Richard Heron a butcher and 1938 Edward Maddison a ladies hairdresser.
Do you know who owned this shop after Edward Maddison?
South Terrace in 1934.
Edinburgh & Castle at left, originally number 13 South Terrace, later No 12
house and shop, numbers 10 and 11 South Terrace were apparently demolished during WW2, bomb damage?
Number 10 would appear to have been a residence until c1925 when ir became a hairdresser's shop owned by Charles Pattison and also housed Benney and Laing, toy dealers
Just off frame to the right was number 9, a butcher's shop, my father worked there from the age of 14 in 1925. Does anyone have a photograph of the shop either under the ownership of Ralph Scott or Lummy Hunter?
