Old shops that were on the cnr of Keith st and Liverpool st and a shop that was on the cnr of keith st and Glasgow st net to Peter's samples rooms
Hi there I was wondering if any well seasoned people that have been in wanganui for a while have any info or photos of the shop that use to be on the cnr of Keith st and Liverpool st across the road from the Keith st school as my grandmother ran it in the early 1950 and my mother ran a shop on the cnr of Keith st and Glasgow st around the same time next to Peter's sample rooms. It would be so great if I could get copies of any photos or info on either or both shops.
Thank you for your time reading this
Kind regards matt
These are photos of the houses that on the sites of the shops. I hope the owners don't mind me posting these photos I will remove if they want

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
58.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.8% ... It is complicated
