Any one know the name of the Dawbers that had this grocers shop that can be seen in the background?

I remember Mellings shoe-shop. I actually had clogs from there as a very small child, and little patent ankle-strap shoes for walking day. I remember plastic sandals becoming fashionable for playing out in around 1960, and all us girls clamouring for some.

i remember having those plastic sandals for walking day once irene they were called jen shoes .

This looks like a Belle Green Mission banner, I am sure that the second boy from the left is Gilbert Cunliffe and the third boy is George Cunliffe who lived in Chatham Street anyone know anybody else or correct me if I am wrong.
