This Picture was taken when the Cafe was a Fish & Chip shop

Don't Know about that

A former forum member, Richard Thorpe, wrote about a chippy in that location within his memory that was shut down for that reason, but I don't know if it was the owner at the time the photo was taken.

That was the chippy used in First of the Summer Wine.

Epidemic fisheries, quite appropriately nick named in that case.

Interesting story in the new book how the owner used to test if the fat was hot enough to start frying the chips!!!
