Unfortunately I don't as I'm much too young, and my parents didn't move to Shipley until the 70s.  I did grow up there though and am interested about how it used to be.

I also had a look at old maps and noticed the Fox & Hounds at 1 Commercial St, so presumably Horne's was right next door, one door from the corner, and the pub is the reason why Fox's Corner (the road junction) is now so named?
