Crawley's Hardware: about 1980 - last gasps of. My mother went in there and in hushed tones, asked for a mouse-trap. On hearing her whispers, 'ol' Crawley' repeated with a shout right to the end of the crowded shop with a big grin, "You want a mouse-trap Madam?" ..... You don't get that in B&Q. And they won't call you Madam. Just before the area started to be called a 'village' and the 'villagers' spattered the lot with Disneyland white plastic doors/window and shonk-various. And then... get this, then... with it looking like a well known West-Watford street, called for a 'Conservation Area'. Now I dare you, say this isn't true? Or shoot the messenger. '
