Coupe's from 1962-20...My husband worked at M.E. Coupe's from 1962-2004. Vincent B.(Vinnie) clearly moved further down Manchester Road as after our marriage in early 1963 we lived in the top flat of 25 Manchester Road: a double fronted semi at the end of the road, now the precinct car park. He also owned 27 Manchester Road and rented the top and middle flats and used the ground floor for storage. Vinnie lived in the bottom flat of 25 and a nephew by marriage, who also worked at the corner shop lived with his family in the middle flat. We moved with Vinnie to Ryebank Road in 1964 living on the 1st floor until we moved again in 1965. Further to the above. Vinnie's 1st wife was Margaret Eleanor Coupe, hence the name above the shop. Vinnie remarried in 1965 but it was his son Michael Coupe that took over the shop until he sold it to Croma. Mike has since died.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
