NEATE STREET.
NEATE STREET.
R. Whites began in 1845, with Robert and Mary White selling ginger beer in stone bottles from a barrow. Eventually it would engulf local rival Rawlings, with seven premises around the area. Locals recall the clatter of horses and carts used for distribution, and bottles bursting on hot days at the storage depots.

Re: NEATE STREET.
I may be wrong on this but I think Arlington Grove is the gap between the houses, it was a cul-de-sac with the rear of R.Whites essence factory at the far end. The large building to the right is possibly the Mineral Water Works.
