A & J Hemming's of Bishops Castle. The site is now Tuffins supermarket, according to Roy Pilsbury.

There are some modern scanning lines on this old photograph, but if you’re from Bishop’s Castle you’ll probably be too fascinated to notice.This is A & J Hemmings of Bishop’s Castle.

Shrewsbury transport historian Roy Pilsbury, through whom the photo came to us, guesses the picture was taken in the early 1940s. He said: “Hemmings were Ford dealers. It is now owned by Tuffins.

“Tuffins have the bottom half of the building, where they have the supermarket. The top part is where they have the workshops and Mike and Gordon Hemmings rent it off Tuffins for their workshop.”
