Dixon Street, Lingdale

Reid’s shop, Dixon Street, Lingdale; a grocers, drapers, and general dealers with Sam Reid in the doorway. Mike Smith tells us: ”Sam Reid was the owner of the shop along with his wife Doris; I called in here on a morning on my way to school to get sweets and I also lived in this street.” Derek Dobson recalls: “I remember getting threepence for Mrs Reid’s sweets; lovely shop, lovely people.”
