| Notes / History | The sizeable Gardner’s self-service supermarket, opened at 31– 37 Broadway c.1963/4, was a sign of the times. Shoppers were now getting used to buying more groceries under one roof and selecting their own goods, rather than having them weighed and packed by the retailer. By 1969, this store had become part of the Safeways supermarket chain. |
