The last 50+ years behind the shop

Originally estabished in 1966 by the great Derek Francis up on Bear Flat, Bath, the shop then moved to the thriving local shopping district of Moorland Road. A lot of things have changed over the past 50+ years, but we’ve searched through the archives and found a few photos.

The Team

Original shop owner Derek Francis’s Daughter & Son now run the shop – Leigh Samways & Simon Francis.
