...Thanks for that memory Ged, even though its still scares me thinking back to it

The business is now relocated on the little Industrial Estate further back up the road on the same side as the old Shop, to the rear of The old Bridewell.
Yes, I would imagine Shaw st was dark and foboding - and still is !
The collegiate, although a nice building, always seems rather dark and ominous

I didn't know Aspinalls are now in the small Industrial Estate.

The new school looks lovely though. Very modern and smart.
