Cycles parked up outside the barber's shop - Barry's Salon
You would step down into it, quite a big room I seem to remember with two proper barber's chairs. Vic Lawrence recalled that with blunt hair clippers quite a lot of hair was pulled out by the roots; 'More tears were shed per day in Barry's Salon than in any funeral parlour.'
Date 1950's-60's.
Ref 100/48

Photo comment By Geoff Nurse: Great to see all these photos. I remember the padlock ironmongers was still there when I was at school in Coggeshall in the late 60s
