Holbrook's Drapers and Grocery Store

Category:

This building housed Holbrooks, which was a shop for many years. Philip Holbrook is first identified as the occupier in 1840. Different generations of the family ran the grocery and bakery business until about 1927.

By 1931 the shop was still trading as Holbrooks, but the proprietor was F E Northam. At this time crockery was sold from a small building to the right, next to Cheam House. Later the shop became part of Abbott's the bakery and then Jantons, which sold clothes.
