Sorry if going off topic in original thread.
We least a chemist shop in Alnwick from 60s to late 70s.
Built in 1825. We found all sorts of things including draws full of glass plates.
Large jar of arsenic marked one shilling and three pence an ounce.
Quick phone call drug squad came from Morpeth to remove Arsenic
I have a very old book of Alnwick which has photos of most of the businesses that used to be in Alnwick.
Including Alnwick Foundry which I think has a picture of a stationary engine on it not sure if engines were built in Alnwick Foundry/
Book is packed away as we are moving soon. I will get it out and check after we have moved and settled in. .
