The stone detached house in Warringtons yard and Nicholsons shop opposite were knocked down at the same time. Maisonettes were built on the land both sides of the road in the early 60s. It didn’t look like a bakery at all, it was just a terraced house and in the window was advertisements.  Quite dark inside too.

Hi hillgirl.  I lived with my parents until 1969  in one of those maisonettes which looked onto the running track in hillsborough park.  There was a shop on the corner opposite our houses.  Further along the road there was a back entrance to the park.  I don't  remember any more shops on that road but there was a dilapidated house which was under probate i believe in the late 60s/early 70s located close to the shop.  Hope that's  helpful.
