Grime, J&J Butchers, 42 Clement St, Accrington, (house).

Thomas Grime 216 Burnley Rd and later 520 Burnley Rd Accrington (both addresses are houses, the latter is where I knew them as a kid)

I believe Mildred's family had connections in Wales.
When my family first moved to Huncoat in 1954, I seem to remember a man called Billy Grimes had a butchers shop in the village but I was only a knee biter of seven year's old at the time and that was 64 year's ago; I have asked other long term residents but their memory's are as bad, if not worse than mine.
Your's, stay happy; Taddy.
