I lived in The Lodge (Wrexham) for many years during my youth.  I left in 1972 when I married and moved away.  Firstly, The Lodge address is "Lodge, Wrexham"  NOT BRYMBO. The building showing the Co-op was there for many years. Opposite this building was a shoe shop.  To the person who questioned about the houses at the side of the
Co-op:- No, the shop staff did not live in them, but they were private houses - including on the left was the village Police Station. This village (in its prime) was large - larger than the next village which was Southsea.  It boasted the following:- 2 x Florists / 1 x wholesale vegetable / Ivy's shop (which was extremely small) / Gallimore's shoe & boot repairer / Fish & Chip shop / Post Office / Ironmonger/ Shoe & Boot seller/repairs / small grocery - sweet shop / the Co-op.  It also boasted it's own police station / Doctor's surgery & 3 Chapels!  This is how I remember it ..... quite a large village!!  :)
