Hathaways Closing
In the centre of this typical Hathaways window display there is a yellow notice:
"Hathaways" formerly owned and run by Mr A. C. Rogers (known to us all as Con.) will cease trading at the end of business on
Saturday 1st September 2007.
His children have taken the decision with considerable regret and they would like to thank the staff for managing the shop since their father's death in December 2006.
They would also like to thank all the customers past and present for their valued custom.
The closure is rumoured to be because of inheritance tax.
