Another little batch of long gone local shops. I remember the junction of Station Rd and Hedgeley Road was known as 'Craigs Corner'

I remember going to Craig's with my parents to buy wallpaper. Mrs Craig used to knock the edge of the rolls off on the counter and I used to use the edges as streamers.

Craig's! Their son Alan worked in the sales dept in the Pyro. Gordon Byers was a keen gymnast like his brother Jock. He ended up in the Bitumastic and was a regular in Roy's pub playing his banjo-mandolin and darts.
