This old butcher's sign has been revealed on Beverley Road, near to Cave Street. I can't remember a butcher's ever being there, that's going back thirty years. The shop is shuttered and closed along with neighbouring shops all benefiting from the economic butchery that is the government's austerity policy. Cuts here, chops there, free money for all our banker friends, oh well done old boy!

From the thumbnail, I thought it said "oyster butcher".
ReplyDeleteI hate to see a street's decline as one shop after another is closed forever.
