The building you looking at was indeed two shops the end one 1950 would have been Greens Ice Cream and sweet shop,later turned into an off licence,the small wall attached was a building about 8ft high with a sloping slate roof no doors on the road side,the doors were in the Albion yard. May have been stables.
I can't remember what the shop next to Greens was always seamed to be empty possibly someone living at the back of the shop.

Just an add on Mr Green used to push a icecream cart around Clayton at the weekend or warm days,very good home made icecream.
