Sheffield Road : (West side) : Charles Hall (furnishers)
The furniture shop of Charles Hall (7-9) was a modern-looking building when this image was photographed in about 1960, erected on the site of the old Black Moors Head public house. Its tall windows in the upper level and extensive glass and tile frontage was typical of 1960s commercial architecture. Under Hall it had a fairly short tenure, trading for only 5 years, replaced Hardy & Co, also furnishers. The smaller Langton's footwear and the Outsize shop are also in view, set within nineteenth-century buildings.
