Hello Steve,
I hope you are well.
I've recently found some time again to carry on my research, and just wondered you could tell me which newspaper it was that advertised Richard making over the business to Joseph & Edward in 1847?
Incase you are interested, your help has been invaluable; from the info you gave me, I've been able to track down newspaper adverts in the Berkshire Chronicle showing John Shaw auctioning his land in 1861 which undoubtedly would be the point the Harrisons purchased it and built 'my' house. The auctions took place in The Dolphin pub, which would have been next door to Harrisons Yard/Bedford Place on Bartholomew Street and still stands today - my favourite local since moving to Newbury in fact.
