I am trying to find the location of a barber shop in Idle which was run by my husband's uncle, Joe Turner, in the 1940/50s. Can anyone suggest where I might start my search, thanks

Trade directories on Ancestry go up to 1946 - is that too early?
Added:
But stop earlier for Yorkshire.
Try offline?
He may have advertised in a local paper.

There is a J.A. Turner, Hairdresser, at 878 Gt. Horton Road, Bradford 71260, in the 1952 directory.
That appears to be a private house. Street view

Would it appear in the 1939 register? Possibly not if there was no residence...just a thought.
Threlfall (Southport), Isherwood (lancs & Canada), Newbould + Topliss(Derby), Keating & Cummins (Ireland + lancs), Fisher, Strong& Casson (all Cumberland) & Downie & Bowie, Linlithgow area Scotland . Also interested in Leigh& Burrows,(Lancashire) Griffiths (Shropshire & lancs), Leaver (Lancs/Yorks) & Anderson(Cumberland and very elusive)

Would someone be kind enough to explain how I access the Trade directories on Ancestry, I can't seem to find them. Thanks
