Photograph taken outside the greengrocery shop in Kingsland Road [for the 1930 Regatta parade ?]. The man in front of the horse is Arthur Mills (father of Jenny Mills) and I remember him going around with this greengrocery cart. His parents Mr & Mrs Leonard Mills kept the greengrocery shop which is seen behind the cart. It is now a carpet shop and is in Kingsland Road opposite the doctors surgery. The man behind the cart looks is Les Tucker - he and Arthur were mates [RG].
From Album 1. Accession No. 2016-11-001A

After WW2 the shop was taken over by Bert and Dorothy Day.
