Name of Bread and Cake Shop on Tolworth Broadway in the 1950-60's

8 years ago...

My Mother was manageress of a Bread & Cake Shop on Tolworth Broadway in the 1950's 1960's. I have asked around with no luck. It's location was on the left as you travel from the Toby Jug Roundabout towards Surbiton. Near to where the Sunshine Cafe & Restaurant is now.

The shop was one of a Chain and she would often help out at a shop on Kingston Road junction of Ruxley Lane and also on Wimbledon Broadway.

Her name was Phyllis Hill and lived at 20 Cox Lane, Chessington from 1949 to her death in 2002.
