I remember shopping for my shoes at Robinsons in 1965. It was a pair of brown shoes with buckles (Made in England). I remember standing by the drain in my new shoes and my feet falling into the drain by a lamp post. I almost lost balance and fell into the drain, which was close to the main road. There was hardly space to walk on the pavement. The spot would be Robinsons at North Bridge Road.
