Sheffield Road (West side) : Richardson's to Star Pet Supplies
Part of Richardson's sweet & tobacco shop can be seen on the left, at 173, next to Newsum's children's outfitters(apparently closed). Newsum operated from 1939-1962. At 169 stood Scaife's tobacconist's shop, now closed down, which was functioning from 1920-59. Just before Star Pet Supplies, at 163 was another men's hairdresser, W. Kenworthy, hairdresser, here from 1903-1959. Like butchers, hairdressers, men's and women's were common small businesses on the streets of Barnsley.
