Hi  Leanne

Glad I could help.  The passage I quoted was on page 27 of 'Old Andover' by CJJ Berry published by the Standard Press, Andover in 1976.  I attach a photo of the 'basket shop and "fancy warehouse"' from page 29 and four other photos of Burdens Corner. The reproductions in this book aren't very high quality and the originals, if available, may be better. I know that there are at least two more recent books with historical photos of Andover.  I have a 1913 photo of No. 1, after it had become Burdens.

I'm sure Old Andover is out of print, but I see that Abebooks have secondhand copies for £10 + p&p at
