I was going to say that but then thought that it might have been Burtons, not John Collier

Re: BroadwY

Uo until 1967, Burtons shop was on the corner of Dutton St. and Blackburn Rd. Bearing in mind it might have changed hands since then.

There was a men's shop on Broadway called Weaver to Wearer where I got my first 2 piece suit with long trousers from - think that John Collier was on Blackburn Road.
