Castle's dairy 1940s

Seen here probably in the late 1940s, this dairy had been the province of farmer Fred Baker of Delegarde Farm in today’s Croydon Road. Always at pains to state that the storage and delivery of milk met with the utmost standards of hygiene, the dairy name hailed from a time before pasteurisation was commonplace with milk being handled in its ‘raw’ form.  After the second World War this business was run by Vic Castle, hence the name today (2018) of ‘Castle Antiques’.
