Seed envelope from fruiterer Edwin Hollingworth
An earlier business than ‘Charltons’, E. J. Hollingworth had taken over a fruiterer, florist and seedmen’s business started by E. F. Crabb in the 1890s in what is today (2019) the Post Office. Hollingworth grew fruit, flowers and vegetables on his own nursery beside the market field (now Quebec Avenue) and is immortalised in the cul-de-sac ‘Hollingworth Way’ which sits on the site of his nursery.
