Hi, Does anyone recognise the exact location address of the Burton’s Hair Stylist shoo in the photo, it looks like a pharmacy next door and a cafe the other side, I think it’s on Derby road?

Thanks

It is Derby Road and the shop Larry Burtons is on the corner of Grimshaw Street, next door is Mawdsleys timber merchants (and coffin makers), on the opposite corner of Grimshaw Street is John Ebos cafe, Grimshaw Street would have been located opposite Pleasant Street which is still in existence to this day.

That’s great many thanks for confirming,
unfortunately I don’t think this is the same barbers I’m looking for as I’m looking for 262 Derby road which I think was further down the road near Howe Street, the same family business could have moved to this location though years later
I’m currently researching my family tree, and wanted to find more info on a Barbers Shop in 262 Derby Road that my family lived and worked at between the years of 1891-1911 from records I have. Would anyone remember this shop with exact location or have any old photos please?

Hiya, thanks for your reply. Which John Burton are you referring to, is it the one living in 338 Stanley Road?
