Nellie Outram's Shop was about 6 houses down from the corner of Milnhay Road towards
Nottingham She sold ladies hats and hat pins.
Also on this side of the road in the 1940s was the telephone exchange,the reddifusion
distribution equipment (in the front room of the Fowkes family)and a small general store next to the Bank on the corner of Elnor Street.To complete the square Miss Parker
had a General Store at the top of Elnor Street and Milnhay Road.On Milnhay Road
itself we had Eyres Shop,a little wooden shop run by 2 sisters who lived in the
council houses across the way.This was situated where the gate now enters the
Telephone Exchange Compound.Last but not
least a small shop was run by the Bowles family in the first house in the row of cottages on the left at the Langley end of
Milnhay Road.
