BRIGG SHOPS LONG GONE

Walking down Bridge Street the other night, after a brief visit to the Yarborough Hunt, we were asked about a nearby house and replied that we though it had once been Miss White's sweet shop. This was close to Harold Green's - another famous emporium.
We are going back to boyhood days of the 1960s and memories are sketchy. Perhaps some of our senior Brigg Blog followers can supply a few details.
We recall there was a popular cafe on the other side of Bridge Street street, together with Ike Tutty's barber's shop near Sherwood's toy and cycle shop and Dunham's bakery.
Gwen's Bargain Shop was near the White Hart.
