Funny Named Businesses

This is in Watertown, Tennessee.

Anyone remember this store ??? I never thought the name was funny till now

"Freeman Hardy and Willis"

I believe listed in Cross Cheaping (1905) - Ref http://deanocity3.piczo.com/coventrycit ... var=000044

I also believe they had a large factory at Leicester that took a big hit during WW2

It is one of the buildings which was demolished to make way for the original Owen-Owen store in 1937. There are few clear pictures of that side of the road. It might be one of the shops on the extreme right of this colorised postcard:



Update: Well that was lucky guess! From the right: Freeman, Hardy & Willis, Lipton's, Bradford Warehouse and then the entry to Little Butcher Row. The road opposite is West Orchard. The left-turn in the distance is not as you might expect Corporation Street (which hadn't been built yet) but Lancastrian Yard.

Good find Dutchy!!!!

I'm not sure if this is blasphemy or not...

Spoiler:

I'm sure it's not Rebbonk
