Stert Street, Abingdon, at lunchtime today.
Stert Street, Abingdon about the turn of the century – 1900.
At number 55 was Ye Olde Printinge Workes. At the far end was W. H. Hooke. Both were printers.
W. H. Hooke is now Robert Gatward Jewellers.
So what did happen to Ye Olde Printinge Workes and W. H. Hooke. How did they become neighbours during the twentieth century, not once, but twice, and what has happened to them since the year 2000.
Find out in tomorrow’s Abingdon Blog installment of ‘Printing Neighbours.’
Didn’t get any W H Hooke evolve into The Abbey Press. My brother worked there when he first left school.
