Elsie Dudleys shop for Ladies was at the corner of St Mary's Street and Castle Street. Being a teenager, I never actually bought anything from Elsie Dudleys. It was a shop where the older lady would find something she liked.Things were quite expensive, but were good quality. She sold nice scarves and handkerchiefs in a fancy box, which made a suitable gift for a female friend. This was all prior to the nice boutiquey shops we have now. Kate: Thanks Barbara. Did you go in Elsie Dudleys? Tell us about your visit and what you bought. Did you try any of Stamford's other shops which have since disappeared? |

Hello, just found this website yesterday. My mam (Olive Clapton nee Olive Green) used to work for Mrs Dudley as a shop assistant/window dresser before she married. Mrs Dudley looked after her very well. Mam still lives in Stamford and I visit every Saturday as I now live in the Cambridge area. Still love Stamford the most though. Kate: Thanks for that Diana. Glad that the entry re Elsie Dudleys brought back some memories. Hope you will have some more to send to the site about Stamford. |
