In 1982 I asked if I could photograph the interior of Beall & Co, the cork shop in Gardner Street, Brighton. The woman running the shop (who I have since found out was called Doris Abrahams) agreed, so I photographed every room (and the back yard) of the place.
These Images are the result. They are scanned from negatives - three rolls of 35mm Ilford XP1 - Taken with a Pentax MEsuper - Higher definition versions are available, or the negs for re-scanning. The Shop was opened in 1883 and it closed for the last time in 1983, one hundred years later. The facade of the shop was removed and is preserved and on view to the public in Brighton Museum.
