Wadsworth Hardware and Richardson's Restaurant, 1984.
At one time, Kay Balsden and her mother Mrs. Allan Brown ran a confectionary and ice cream store in this building. The Brown's sold the store to Lyle Stokes, who sold it to Charlie and Ruth Garrod in 1948. The Garrods greatly enlarged the grocery store into a full scale supermarket.
The grocery store would change hands several times before John Skinner and his wife Blanche purchased the building in 1962, and later added a restaurant. Doug and Elaine McNair purchased the building in 1973, and remodelled it into a full restaurant in 1978.
As a restaurant, the building saw many owners before being bought by Christina McGrath and Adam Lawrence in 2016. It was then converted into the Crown and Turtle Pub, which remains today.
