Hi the Grocers was on the old Chester Rd.  was made into a post office and in the 1990s was demolished for flats and opposite is a new housing estate..

The pub is still there that was a couple of footsteps  from the Grocers and is called The Barbridge Inn.. My family used to live and work in Barbridge and have many photos of the place. Hope this helps

Hi Sorry for the rather late reply. Just to let you know i didnt look any further into Stokehall Farm. Hope you have had some luck since.

Hi Bertha23, Thank you for the information. Do you have any photographs of the grocer shop in your collection?
