I remember the shop that is shown here as Adams's Stores became Reigate's first supermarket, sometime in the 1960s. We were all amazed at the concept of getting a wire basket and filling it yourself off the shelves!

The door of the shop that you can see here still exists, and is in remarkably good condition, when you consider its age. It is now in the caves behind, open to the public several times a year.
