Description: | The caption on the photograph states that Mr & Mrs Holdway can be seen together with Mrs House who delivered milk in cans locally. George Holdway is listed as a beer retailer in 1911 and in 1919 he was charged with allowing the consumption of liquor after hours during the celebrations marking the end of the 1914-18 War. The case was dismissed. The sign above the shop refers to Thos. Williams & Co Celebrated Ales.
In 1932 the proprietor was Henry Tavender and in 1936 D Dandridge. A beer retailer was licensed to sell beer or cider for consumption on or off the premises, but not wines or spirits. The area was demolished in about 1960 to make way for new development. Ladbrooke Road, Chalvey is now where the building once stood. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.exe?a=query&p=gateway&f=generic_sitetext%2ehtm&_IXFIRST_=1&_IXMAXHITS_=1&cms_con_core_subtype%3acms_con_text_what=copyright&%3acms_sys_group=%22sopse%22 | Rights holder: | Slough Library | Subjects: | Cape of Good Hope ; Mr & Mrs Holdway ; Thos.
