Hello

I'm looking for information and any photos of a bakery at 275 Poulton Road for a family history project.

My late Mum, Sheila FitzGerald (born 1928), daughter of Peggy & Joseph with brothers Gerald (killed aged 20 in 1945) and Desmond (in the merchant navy) were born there and we remember my Mum saying that her Mum, Margaret 'Peggy' FitzGerald had a bakery and they lived upstairs.

We visited the house recently and met the current owner and it still has traces of the shop front.

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks
Julie
