Redditch Bakeries

I remember that New Street had a Bakery at the back Hopkins and opposite Heaphies. They let us go in as children to watch the baking process of bread, cakes and pies.

Also Walford Street had a Bakery run by a Mr. Bennett where we got fresh dough-nuts rolled in sugar while still hot.  There was also an entrance gate that led to Wilson's Royal Yard where Wilson's fair wintered.

The other main entrance went up between where the Library is and that's the same as it was then.
