These additional photographs were taken after the round deliveries,  and the return and checking  of trays and bread .  The drivers would then report to the office to cash in their takings for the day, and fill in their orders for the following day before paking up their vehicles......The photograph of the two salesmen out on the town are, Frank Townroe and Harry Riley, both were Landers salesmen and the picture taken circa 1948.

Photograph 2. Shows the old 5 loading bays on the left at the top of Oxford street. This was as far as Oxford Street went, long before the new loading sheds and Silos were built as shown on another photograph. If my memory serves me right, on the right hand side, at the bottom of the side street was a Builders Yard. Next to it, I believe was a Paint Shop Yard. Then a house, then the Allotments that stretched back up as far as the railway lines and embankment. A van wash was built on the top right of the street at a later date. At this time, the two confectionery windows were still in use, as shown on the photograph of Jack Pearson stood by his old van.
