Ted's Grill was on West End Road, it was where the Clarendon Car Park now stands, they were good fish and chips in the 70's.

We like Atkinsons and Blackburns off pedder street.

That is the one, but dont think it was west end road, as thats where i stay on hotels, and i think it was the next street along maybe morecambe antiques site....

would lpve to find a old photo of The Grill

He learnt his trade under Ted. Fond memories of childhood holidays..........

Looking around t'internet:

www.ttpics.co.uk/shrimpsvoices/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=8777&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=25

Dead right Shrimper. "Ted's Grill" was on the corner of Albert Road and "Blakey's Toy shop" was in between "Ted's Grill" and The Clarendon. Mr James Blakey sold his shop to Richard Lancaster when he retired.

"Ted's Grill" was run by the late Ted Blackburn and his son Roland run's the Fish and Chip shop next to The Palatine.

and

www.morecambe.co.uk/visitorsbook2001.html

The pies were in the window of a shop just about next door to Ted's Grill about 20 yards from the junction of Northumberland Street and the prom. They had meat and potato, steak and kidney with some other mouth watering crusty pies

Learnt something new there Brian, didnt know Roland is Ted's son...We love Blackburns fish & Chips, and loved Ted's.

The toy shop was Lancasters (Richard) he had 3 in morecambe if i remember the one next to the clarendon, one by pedder street and one down the side of what was the amusements now the antiques place.

Next time we're up there we must pay that one a visit, not that I'm a great fan of chips but now and again they are OK and especially when eaten out in the open air at the seaside for some reason. Coachman is on a healthy kick at the moment so mustn't mention any chips to him unless they are weightwatchers oven chips.

WendyW: Evening all

I had been telling my hubby about the time I was in Morecombe when the Moby Dick and Hotel was hit by lightening and burnt down. My parents, sister and myself had just come off the Moby Dick when lightening stuck Jul 21, 2016 19:25:27 GMT

WendyW: As we walked away from the burning boat we walked past the Hotel, which had big stone balls on the towers, the lightening struck just as we walked past. I have a very healthy respect of thunderstorms.
