R. Ching's grocery shop, Sussex Street, Linton, established in 1861, was sold by Alan Ching to Alf Nunn (father of Dulcie Morgan) in 1960 and was subsequently demolished. This photograph was originally believed to have been taken in the early 1900s. However in 2017, Betty Grigg identified the men in it as Alan Ching (lhs) and Eugene Grigg (rhs), and said the photograph was most likely taken around 1941.Black and white photograph of brick shop with two men in aprons standing in doorway.ching's store, richard ching, buildings, shops
