Somebody might remember this, Th3 Cottage used record shop in Church Road . I regret that I did not know it but by accounts it was an institution in its day .

Nowadays it is an eatery.

Ooo that takes me back. The Cottage was an excellent second hand record shop - bought many LPs (or "vinyls" as the young 'uns now call them) there. Remember lovely staff in there too.

Always struck me walking past that building that it looked very pub-shaped. I wonder if it was a pub before it was a set of hairdresser & newsagent shops?
