Looking north-east towards the junction of Broadgate Lane (formerly South Broadgate Lane) on the right. Of interest here is the barber's shop, which has been a barber's for at least 68 years. In the war years as a boy, I used to get my hair cut there - cost, sixpence (that's 2.5p in new money!). The barber was a Mr Fawcett. He used hand clippers, and if you did not behave well, he gave you a nasty clip on the neck!
