chocki Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Strange question but does anybody know what month/year the above co-op opened. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillsbro Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 All I can say it that it's been there a long time, to judge from Kelly's directories. The (former Brightside & Carbrook) Co-Op at 646 Stannington Road is listed in the 1942 Kelly's Directory, but not in the 1925 directory, so I imagine it opened between 1924 and 1941. I might be able to narrow down the date a bit in a week ore two - my 1937 directory is being rebound (it gets a lot of use).. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant the last few years as in its present state. I thought it was around 2002/3, someone else says later, around 2004/5. Just wondering who is right. There's £10 on it! P.S. thanks for the information Hillsboro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
