« on: Sunday 03 October 10 10:04 BST (UK) »
Hello eveyone, this is a photo' of my Uncle Walter's shop in Brighton. I think it was taken aroud the mid / late 20s. My grandfather (in bowler hat) My dad, is standing next to him and my uncle Walter is holding a knife. You can just see my grandmother in the doorway behind Walter. Can anthing be done to improve this photo, I really would be happy if it is possible. Thanks all, Sara.

Although Charles has done a great job this really needs to be rescanned at a high resolution so that more details (facial) can be seen.

This same shop on the corner of Tidy Street and Gloucester Road became my parents furniture shop in 1937.  A picture of it from the late 1930s appears on the My Brighton Website,

Didn't know that "Butcher" was spelled differently on the South coast!

a little judicial dodge and burn  and some sharpening
Suffolk - especially the area surrounding Burstall
Kent - Hythe Folkestone area
