Hi Vivien,

I have the book 'Around Pershore in old photographs' by Michael Dowty and I have scoured that for the photo you require. However, although there are 2 or 3 of Broad Street I can find no reference to
the buthcher's shop. The author is mostly demonstrating the ironmongers shop that his ancestor owned. If you are interested in seeing these pictures for yourself I am happy to scan same and send
them to you.

My ancestor, Honeybourne WORKMAN, also had a buthcer's shop in Pershore, on the corner of Church St and High St, and I long to find a photo of that. I have visited Pershore but cannot decide which
was originally his shop.
