1919

This is the shop my Grandad, Thomas F. Parker, bought in 1919, after he had come home from the Western Front. He became the Raleigh-dealer, selling bicycles, and later on he ran a petrol station in the High Street, Stockbridge.

First he rented part of the house (known as "Stockbridge House"), and later he was able to buy the property.
