Bambam: The Post Office was not facing the Blue Bell, but higher up, more or less opposite the church. In the 50's, it was lower down Rectory Road. Opposite the Bell was a Betting Shop, as well as a phone box. I'm not 100% certain, but I think that was in another location in the 50's. Dougie will know when he turns up.

Back to the pub. As it was shown on the 1947 map, some of the older DG:ers should be able to remember it, as it must have been there when families were moving onto the estate
