SHOPS
By Address through the years

2. THAMES STREET
I have researched who were doing business in each building through the years. Some old buildings have been demolished and some new ones have been built. Of course, both of those will not have as many people using them.

This street is confusing with it's numbers. As you are looking down Thames Street from Swann's/Waine's, the odd numbers are on your left hand side . Now if you look from the same place along the High Street the odd numbers there are on your right hand side.

THAMES STREET
Odd Numbers - Debenhams side of Street.

THAMES STREET
Even Numbers - Johnson & Clarks side of the street
