I remember it well through the 70-80`s. Last went in about 95 when living up Huncoat. Passed by many times and thought it was shut. One day I tried the door and it was open. Exactly as it always had been, nowt on shelf's and nobody there, then the old man just appeared from nowhere. Cant remember what I bought but he did put the change on the tray on the counter like he always used too. Seen the old man walking up burnley road at a brisk pace few times over the years since.
