'Speculating' in Mansfield
This is an unusual source of local history, discovered in a pile of old spectacle cases. Names were on the spectacle cases and on the cleaning cloths inside.
As a child all my specs came from Hyde Bain, next door (or thereabouts) to the hobby, model kit shop. Can’t remember the name of this shop but did use it from time to time. Your pics one & four indicate that they shared the same address at sometime or other. Unless I need to go to Specsavers that is! Don’t recall Hinds though, I was aged only 9 or 10 ‘ish.
