The corner of Broadway and Harpur Street
An interesting looking building, dated 1920, in Bedford that looks as if it might have some history, perhaps as a cinema? Richard Thomson has told me that it was Frasers, a music shop in the 1950s and 1960s, and that Glenn Miller, when he was at Twinwood in WWII Image, Image, Image, bought sheet music for his band there http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=frasers%20music%20shop%20bedford%20broadway&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CB8QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bedford.gov.uk%2Fidoc.ashx%3Fdocid%3D5421c64e-4c39-4c9d-a6a6-0f089f9b7bd4%26version%3D-1&ei=AgyTVeK1KcbkUbWTgLgM&usg=AFQjCNEjsgoH2TraLJS8X-OqcWh6f4UGRg&sig2=GNgyumyDNqA8k04lajvIeA&bvm=bv.96783405,d.d24. It closed in 1968/9 and, a sign of the times, one of the shops now is a e-cigarette shop!
