1877 - Tribute to Kennedy's
Sausages (and Pies) by Alan Edwards - 2007 |
Kennedy's, Deptford High Street, DEPTFORD |
The Kennedys shop in Deptford High Street originally
had a double frontage but only the right hand half of the shop was
in use in later years. The left side of the shop was at one time
an A.J. Kennedy's fresh fish shop. The Kennedy's fascia sign is
partly hidden beneath the striped shop blind which was a modern
addition. The original Dean, Putney pullout shop blinds are still
located above the fascia board. Photo taken on 18/12/2007. |

The sad scene looking
through the window at Kennedy's Deptford shop. A "Sorry you're
leaving" balloon keeps company with a small teddy bear hanging
on the display shelf behind the counter. Photo taken on 27/12/2007

After closure - Two thirds
of the Kennedy's Sausages fascia sign are now fully shown in this
view taken on 10/07/2008, the Kennedy's stripy blinds have now gone,
there are now dark blue fittings for security shutters in preperation
of the new occupiers. The low corrugated roof structure is a reminder
of the relentless wartime bomb damage that Deptford suffered during
WW2.
