MEMORY LANE: Grantham mechanics chose Pollard’s for motor spares
Published: 08:36, 30 January 2018
This photograph was shot in 1984 when every motor car DIY mechanic in the Grantham area would head for Pollard’s auto spares shop in Norton Street.
The old-fashioned motor factors was owned by George Pollard who would stand behind the counter of the chilly shop in an ancient 1950s-style winter overcoat.
George’s stock and knowledge was immense and varied.
The shop was finally pulled down around 2004 and developed into flats.
