By the early 1900s it had become the Model Laundry which stayed in business until the 1940s. During the 1950s it became Homade Bakeries.
From the 1960s onwards the premises became a wood turner's factory which survived up until it's closure sometime during the mid to late 2000s.
It was demolished during 2009 to make way for housing.
I always knew this shop as Betty’s. My Mum spent a lot of time chatting to Betty and her husband whilst I stood with her in the shop watching Betty’s husband slice meat with a meat slicing machine.
This shop was Harmony Carpets from around 1968. It was been a vacant shop for many years and has recently been converted into housing.
The earliest records I could find for 210 and 210a Elm Grove was during the early 1890s.
