In the 1930s this was a grocery shop / cafe run by the Pond Brothers and the area has always been known as Ponds Corner. In 1990 it was the Roundabout Grocery store; in 2001 the Castle Point Gas & Heating offices and now a Nail & Beauty Salon
I remember Falkus the fish shop on the corner of Hart Rd and Park Rd. As teens, we all used to gather to sit on the fish shop wall and discuss motorcycles, the top ten music, etc, etc. My parents asked if we were being a nuisance and Mr Falkus said we were always well behaved, bless him. Next door to Falkus was Colemans Butchers where Cecil Coleman and his wife worked, lovely people.
