Granny & Grandpa Bradshaw outside their pie shop in Hallgate
The shop closed in 1943 when the couple reached the age of 70yrs. I can remember going there as a small child, I could just reach to the top of the counter & remember getting some sweets. The young man standing beside them was my mother's brother Tommy Bryson.
