My cousin worked there during the end of the war I used to go there with my Mum to collect orange juice and malt,the orange juice had to be diluted with water,Lots of children must have gone with out during the war,when I was about 10years old the usa sent powder drinking chocolate the uk the school gave it out to the children,We were asked to take a clean tin to get are share, PS the orange juice was for my brother born 1943,

All things being relatively, the building was cheap, what would a new house cost at that time? Cheers and Festive greetings.

Good photo Ronnie.
I thought the same Bob, the Townhall was a real bargain buy. Our house in Nelson Road a 3-bed terrace cost £750.00, £11/month mortgage (1967)
