Welwyn Stores
Delivering groceries on a bike
By Jean Pestle nee Bray
My father and his brother worked in the original Welwyn Stores. I think the photo shows them outside the shop in the late 1920’s.
He told me that when he first started he was a delivery boy and he delivered groceries on a bike to the first houses when they were being built.

I now suspect that Roger Filler was correct and I was talking nonsense!
I suspect that this is in fact the original small Welwyn Stores, located between Parkway and Guessons Road, WGC.
This must be the Welwyn Stores in the village of Welwyn, rather than the Welwyn Stores building in the centre of Welwyn Garden.
