Shops that sold old fireplaces were a thing. -

There used to be loads of bric a brac and antique shops in ED. There was a guy called Rene who had one along from the station back in the early 80's. Quite a few on NX and then there was Austins towards Peckham. Does anyone remember Dave the greengrocer and his brother? The Junction Emporium was much more recent. I remember Target but never went in. -
If I remember rightly there used to be a similar shop in Catford - weird that we used to have arms and militaria shops dotted around South London! Was that the Junction Emporium? -
Inside 72 was great! There was also a sort of antique type shop on the same stretch as the weird military shop. I think it was where Spinach is now, though there was at least one shop in between (?tea shop?) My friend and I once did a cocktail crawl down Lordship Lane, starting at the Black Cherry (now Franco Manca I think). We ended up with her with a set of crystal glasses and me with a stick back chair staggering drunkenly from said antique type shop back down what apparently we must now call "The Lane" 🤣
