THREE men have been ordered to pay out more than £4,500 in fines and costs following separate incidents of fly-tipping.

This view of Browne and Gradidge Ltd was taken in 1907. The shop was at 19 High Street, two shops down from the Globe Hotel and was a partnership or business agreement between bookseller and printer Frederick J J Browne, and chemist William Ivimey Gradidge. A generation earlier, Gradidge’s mother Ann had been a chemist and stationer on the opposite side of the street, next to the George Inn. Ann’s chemist husband had died young and once he was old enough, William took on his mother’s shop. He married Emily Browne in 1877 and they employed two members of staff.
