Hi All,
My Great Granduncle had a boot and shoe shop at "Bridgefoot" Ware.
I am trying to find this place on a current map of Ware - I have old photos saying they are taken from the eastern end of High St, looking towards "Bridgefoot" - so know its general area - but where in Ware!!
Does anyone know of a current picture of this area?
Cheers
Keith

Hi Darcy,
Thanks for that link - but I had been there - good site but not with the information I need!
It even has a Street search engine - but Bridgefoot is not in that either.
But thanks for trying.
Cheers
Keith
