Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The Former Deiniolen and District Co-op Store. This was the shop back in the 1950s, with long queues outside on Monday and Friday mornings and housewives prepared to spend half a day waiting to be served. But then, the Deiniolen Co-op paid a divi which amounted to 2/6 in the £. Groceries were stocked downstairs, drapery upstairs. The shop was ruled with a rod of iron by 'Morgans Bach', a little man with a South Walian accent. The collapse of the slate industry and the growth of supermarkets in Caernarfon and Bangor led to the demise of the Co-op. It was all over by the 1970s. The building then became a convenience store and, today, is the only shop left in Deiniolen. |
