Tried checking on Google Street view but see what you think. The CO-OP at Manor Top was quite a large building if my memory serves me right. Looking at Google SV there are 2 actual buildings I think it was the building closest to the library. I do remember in the early 70's there was a cafe at the end nearest the library, always got a load of Post Office Telephone vans parking around the back. Link to post Share on other sites

I do remember in the early 70's there was a cafe at the end nearest the library, always got a load of Post Office Telephone vans parking around the back. I think the Co-Op was part of the boarded up central section between the tanning place and Fultons Foods. The end one nearest the Library (actually the Health Centre first, then the Library), the tanning centre, was for many years Mitchells DIY and had bits of wood and timber outside. May have been a cafe at some stage though. Between the tanning place and the Health centre is a driveway that lead down to the rear of Pete Harrisons parents house. Link to post Share on other sites

The blue paintwork looks like the colour the CO-OP used around the 90's Link to post Share on other sites

DaveH 20 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Thanks to DaveH, a then and now picture of the S&E Co-op at Morland Road, Herdings. The part of the shop on the far right of the photo was the Co-op butchers which was run separately to the main supermarket. The same Herdings S&E building today. It looks like at least part of it is now a boxing club! Link to post Share on other sites
