According to an advert from the 1950s they carried the largest and most up to date stock of Dressmakers Sundries in the district: - Every colour in 'SYLKO' and a huge stock of zip fasteners, belts, buckles and buttons made from your own materials. VILENE and 'iron on' facing, also 'No sew' tape in many colours. Buttons, buckles and haberdashery in good assortment.
In the mid 1960s No.209 was Parkers Bakeries Ltd. Parkers remained at this site until the mid 1970s. If you had gone past No.209 in June 1978 or indeed July 1983 you might have noticed that it was a unisex hair stylist; it was called the House of Flair. After the hairdressers left, this premises reverted back to a bakers when Greggs moved in.
