I remember seeing them on television a d in the local paper

An interesting video, its amazing to see how the shops have changed, I used to visit Hitchin between 1980- 2015 when I lived in that area, I can remember the toy shop on the first floor that is where Hendersons is.

[@mjstefansson7466]

Its was called Toy & Card. And at the other end of the arcade was Zodiac Toys

[@klisher]

@@mjstefansson7466 Zodiac was slightly cheaper. There was also Gaytime toy shop up Hermitage Road, Toy and Card used to have a good selection of craft toys (Remus ,painting and craft kits) and magic related toys.

Thank you for posting. I’m interested if other villages and towns have their histories documented in such a way.

Look at the willow tree by the church compared to now! Love these old films

[@grahamewilliams1707]

Willow tree had rot and fell down this week.

[@hitchjack]

@@grahamewilliams1707 I know 😞 I was actually thinking where did I see that tree when it was younger, thanks for reminding me!

Some relatives of bob hope lived in hitchin. He used to visit them once a year

[@SamHallas1949]

That's right. Richard Whitmore wrote the script for a Hitchin Historical Society film about Bob Hope's Hitchin connections. I think it's on one of the DVDs the HHS published.
