Been down to your local supermarket lately?
IT all began with a photo of the Northern Supermarket in Whitby Avenue in York. We asked readers if they remembered the store - which some reported to be York s first supermarket - and the floodgates opened. Readers have been sharing memories, not only of the Northern, but also of a long list of other well-known and loved supermarts in York that are no longer with us. And we ve had a look through our archives to find some old photos of some more of York s long lost supermarkets.
The photos. Our photos today include: The Co-op in Acomb in 1973; Frank Dee s Supermarket, Clifton Green in 1974; Liptons in Goodramgate in late 1980s or early 1990s; Presto in Acomb s Front Street in 1979; Tesco, in Piccadilly in 1988; Robsons in Haxby and Jackson s in Fulford Road in 2000.
