    Your last pic, credited to Crispin Hook is not showing No 3. There is still a barber's next to us there, at that location however. The hairdresser, John Gall, which you show in that pic was where I used to have my hair cut when I was a kid.

    I believe 3 St Peter’s street was Parkes the Optician. This was in 1960’s.
    5/7 St Peter’s was Boardley & Roberts shop they also had another shop the other side of the road. This shop was next to Spurgeon’s Score. CREDIT: fb ChrisDavid Squibb
