Guest mummyb74 Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Hi my friend opened Humbugs of Greenhill traditional sweet shop back in May, and she is wanting to know the history behind the shop / cottages. She is situated on Greenhill Main Road, and previously the shop was Calico gift shop. If anyone has any information would be greatful.

Stuart0742 Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Hi mummyb74 welcome to the site. I have just had a look on Google SV to locate this shop I cant seem to find it, Is it in the middle section of Greenhill main rd, there seem to be a number of Hairdressing/Tanning type shops.
