Shopfront, 305 Walworth Road, Walworth, London
Kennedy's was a chain of grocer's or butcher's shops. My wife's mother, when the family lived in West Wickham, always bought at Kennedy's. After her death, no matter at whose home we 'children' were meeting up for Christmas, a family member would make the journey to Wickham for Kennedy's pork chipolata sausages to accompany the roast bird.
This shopfront has some endearing features: the 'sunrise' motif in the upper panes of glass; polished granite, possibly, below the window; and a prettily tiled threshold. The first two items hint at a 1920s or 30s makeover, while the tiles and fascia date from an earlier period. This business is some form of eatery.

Shops, Walworth Road
On our way to Christmas lunch via Camberwell Green we took a wrong turning after Elephant & Castle but found our way through side streets to the Walworth Road here, opposite BUY N BUY, a general foodstore open for business on Christmas Day. We noticed a few such shops open on our way through south London. Photographed at 11:59:39. Weather relatively mild for late December, cloudy with brief sunny breaks, damp.
