It's Station Road - don't think there is Waitrose there now.

STATION ROAD, PORTSLADE

Three photographs of 1973, taken shortly before the removal of the extensive premises of Vine and Lee Ltd., Motor Dealers of 19/20, Station Road. The business was started by Mr A.W. Lee before the 1st World War on the ground floor of what had been a private house. The later premises, seen here, were removed in 1974 and replaced by the present building.

Says Vine & (Lees?) on the sign. And it says garage on the chimney. But I thought Vine & Lees was near Preston Park. V confused.

Edit: Oops - posted after your answer 8ace. So they had two shops or do I remember it worng? I'm sure my Dad took his morris minor to Vine & Lees just down the raod from us in Reigate Road.

My brother started work as an apprentice for Vine & Lees back in the early sixties and ended up getting the sack for persistently listening to his 'new fangled' Transistor Radio when he was working underneath cars!

Shop wasn't on Reigate Road - that's where we lived. The garage was down the Drove at the end of Reigate Road and under the bridge in Preston Village.

He also used a garage in Port Hall Road/ Port Hall Place - anyone remember what that was called? Now appears to be a private home.
