Can anybody help me please? I am trying to locate the position of a shop in the market place Lechlade which in 1922 was run by Frederick and Annie Bolton.Frederick was a master tailor by trade.
New Information: The shop was called F.E.Bolton and P.J.Higgs far rh side of the pic
Thanks

Hi Cooperman, I looked on the Kelly`s Directory for 1823 but Frederick Bolton, Tailor, is just listed as being in Market Place, Lechlade.

Hi Sue,
Thanks for the reply and interested in the fact that you found a Bolton in the 1823 Kelly's Directory.
My Frederick spent most of his early years in the Headington district of Oxford.
So this has now put a new twist to the story.
Regards
Cooperman

I wonder if the local Council would have any paperwork regarding the siting of the different shops

Hi Sue,
Just to let you know that the Lechlade Parish Council passed my email on to a couple who very kindly sent me a couple of pictures.
The shop was called 'Higgs' and was located in the market square opposite the church, the shop is now the library.
Thanks again
Cooperman
