Philip Price shared this memory on the memories of leadgate Facebook grouo
Judging by the cars its gonna probably be mid 60’s.
To the right of the photo you can see a shop second from the end of the terrace, owned by John & Margaret Gordon I believe, they subsequently bought the house on the end of the terrace and redeveloped the two properties into a shop and laundrette with living accommodation above.
Some years after that when the Queens head had laid semi derelict for some time, John & Margaret purchased it and converted it into an antiques and curios shop with a large flat above, there they lived into retirement. John & Margaret were known to almost all in Leadgate.
What are your memories of the Queen’s Head?
