Currington's as it was in the 50's when it occupied numbers 1 to 7 Warren Road, until it closed
in the late 60's, having been sold to a firm of builders from Epsom a few years earlier. After 30
years service my Dad was given two weeks notice of the closure. As Saturday Boy at Currington's
these were some of the best days of my life. Currington's stocked pretty well everything one
could possibly need, and if they didn't have it they would order it directly.
With thanks to Anthony Twyman.

My Dad worked for Curringtons in the '50s. I remember him working in the the workshop at the back. We lived in one of the flats (number 3, I think) above the shop until I was 7 (1959). My Mum used to but broken biscuits from Reigate Dairy across the road. She worked as a secretary at Wray Park Garages.
