Sidney George Badham (my grandfather) was a greengrocer. In the 1900s, he went to Rugby to help his eldest brother, Ernest Charles Badham, in his greengrocery shop in the High Street. By 1910, Sidney George Badham had his own shop in Market Street, Wellingborough.

Later still, Sidney George Badham and his wife Annie Katherine Holinshead moved to Aldershot where they opened a greengrocers in Union Street, shown below (the 1920 and 1986 photographs were provided by and are reproduced with the kind permission of Aldershot Library).
