There were two Bernasconi's at Accy Cop shop, the youngest one went to Woodnook Council School, they lived on Hudson St, their father worked at Bulloghs. Tom served his time as a joiner, worked on Clement St. Left the cops and opened a hardware shop in Cherry Tree, Blegburn.

I'm pretty sure Eric grew up on Bishop Street, just around the corner from Hudson Street in the same area of Woodnook. He must be related to these two brothers.

Sorry but can't remember him having a shop on Richmond Hill street.

It's going back to the 1950s . The first barber's I ever went to .

There was a ladies' hairdressers upstairs , possibly Bacigalupo's wife's .

Maybe it was Higher Antley Street and not Richmond Hill Street . I'm not absolutely certain now that I come to think of it .

It was Richmond Street which runs parallel to Higher Antley Street. Richmond Hill Street runs 90 degrees to these two.
