This Grasmere Supper Rooms on Grasmere Rd in 1998. The town had a number of shops and business that retained their original features and this was one of the better preserved examples. Note the beautiful stained glass in the upper panes with the words Fish, Chips, & Peas - probably from the 1930s. I think it's even more interesting because the building is very much still in use as a business.
If you look below at the 2009 Google Streetview image it seems to have had a radical make-over. The lathe turned wooden panelling has been replaced by modern UPVC double-glazing. Thankfully though the stained glass windows have been retained.
