Back of the shop.
I was often given a note to take to my Dad who worked there from my Mum which I disliked doing as there was always lots of wasps flying around because of the dried fruit.
The previous author places the shop at 495 Green Lanes. Is that correct? This is now part of Yasar Halim. This store opened in 1981. Did your family sell to them? Comment by joyce boston on April 7, 2021 at 13:42
Yes the shop was at 495 but it wasnt my families shop

New Harringay Grocers/Juice Bar
I noticed this morning the shop that used to be William Hill (opposite Diyarbakir) on Green Lanes is being refitted with black frontage and lots of wooden fruit boxes being set out.
The guy working next door said it s going to be a organic grocery and juice bar. An upgrade from a bookmakers, and this end of Green Lanes definitely won t be short on grocers.

There’s a market for everything. Consider what you are paying for when buying non-‘fancy’ bread - industrially produced garbage. I grew up eating real bread and happy to pay a premium for a decent loaf.

my Father was an employee. Starting there pre ww2 and after from the mid 1950s untill late 60s. I cant remember when the shop closed.
Any names to add to those faces Joyce ? Assume all local lads.
From left to right. Second man Len Wilkinson (My Dad) after that not too sure stretching the grey matter fourth might be Charlie ( dont know surname) and fifth might be Richard again dont know surname. My brother who is older than me used to work there on a Saturday so he might have a better recollection. I will ask him next time i see him.
