Previously the site of the Ham Street Wesleyan Chapel it gained greater note after the latter burnt down in 1937 when the ruin was purchased by a Mr James William Selleck whose own bakery had been destroyed in the blitz of 1941. I well remember the stone steps leading up to the restaurant then the bare wooden ones leading up to long counter over which pasties could be purchased. As a pupil of the nearby Sutton High School I would go to the bakery door just down the hill to buy my lunch straight from the oven! How times have changed!
