Social History
From the amazing memory of Leslie Baden Woodland, at the age of 82 in 1982 he wrote,
“Batman Street. corner to the newsagents and on to Dudley Street corner. Mr Rufin has his shop there. Leave me think, wasn’t there a coffee palace arrangement on the other corner. Next shop was Matt George’s grocery, Prouts Chemist, a dairy produce shop and Mr B. J. Kemp’s grocery, which was sold on B. J.’s death to Montgomery’s. Then on the corner of Rosslyn St was Rex’s. Wally was their son and I well remember how well he used to sing “Harrigan, that’s me”. He used to do the act at school concerts etc.”
