Used to be two shops of note up Welby Street, a gents outfitter, on the RHS going up and an amazing sandwich shop which was on the LHS under the flats above. Remember the old Welby Street, full of character.

Like you I remember all too well the Grantham of my youth, happy, happy days.
Sad too see it slowly being destroyed.
