Pembrey's department store, High Street

  • BCA - 2023.6032
  • Item
  • 2023

Pembrey's department store, High Street T W Pembrey was Bampton's first and only department store. It comprised the building facing across
Bushey Row (called New Inn Lane when this picture was taken), the thatched building now called
Strawberry Cottage, the building next door and the next one which is just out of the camera shot.
(The daughters grew up to run a school for ladies in the house called The Elms which is in Broad
Street by the turn up to New Road.) When this picture was taken, which was probably right at the
end of the 19th century, the Post Office was in the store. It moved from here to Wheelgate House in
the High Street in 1918 where it stayed until 1972. All the buildings seen on the left are now private
houses and the one across Bushey Row is (at 2014) Bampton Physiotherapy owned and run by Fiona
Farmer
