Number 32a Brixton Road in Kelly’s Directories 1881 to 1928

Number 32a? You may ask in a puzzled voice, there’s no such thing! Well the answer is there was once a 32a, in fact the next few shops have all gone through renumbering and from what I can tell rebuilding. This has resulted in there being more shops listed in Kelly’s Directories 1881 to 1894 between numbers 32a and the end of this block which was at that time numbered 38a. 32a would have stood on the right hand side of what is now Blissetts DIY store.

The business would have stood somewhere in the region marked in dark grey on the picture above.
