there was a co-op in bryn gates, in fact there was a bakery a drapery a butchers and the grocery, we used to live opposite the grocers/drapery, and my mother used to shop at all the departments, and we got our "divi" from the Ashton co-op, we didn't have to go far for food etc in those days,when the shops closed in the sixties it was my job as the youngest to go to the co-op at stubshy and bring the shoping back, some time when passing I think of the amount of times I went up stubshy brew and back again and think S**t any way back to work
