Parkers

The day after the fire that destroyed Parker's general hardware store March 1969.
I can remember that fire I was nine years old at the time and i was heart broken as they had a monkey and a parrot in cages in the back of the store and they perished in the fire.
 
Yes, I remember that too - it was very upsetting (especially being a kid as well at the time) thinking about them trapped in cages as the place went up in flames ....
 
i was working for parkers at the time of the fire it was caused by an electical fault my little mini pick up took hundreds of loads to the warehouse near the railway station markett jew street was closed for days
