I remember the paper shop in Church Street and you can just make out Maslins bakery. We used to buy bags of stale buns for 3 or 6 old pence for lunch!
Heaths paper shop on the strand where I had a paper round from 1962, delivering to the new estate being built at the end of Bryans Close Road.
I accept its a bit of a cliche but Calne had some really interesting shops before the town gardens were bull dozed to make room for the new road. |
