This is Killicks Corner, church street, Reigate.
During WW2 there was a sweet shop where shop,window can be seen. After the war my grandparents lived in the cottage in the middle, next to the sweet shop (the smaller of the two porches). Their house went over the top of sweet shop (Mr Kennedy) grandmothers bedroom had the windows at the end. The upstairs room to the right of the porch contained a walk in cupboard with a glass paned cupboard inside, I believe for people to store and use powder for wigs without it escaping into,the room. Unfortunately the whole block (2 cottages and 2 shops) were pulled down in early 1960s to accommodate Church Street Garage....now also pulled down for offices.
