Hickman Stores
From Lacey Green History
In 1924 Harold Hickman built a house in the garden of Kia Cottage, on the Main Road in Lacey Green. He called it "Wembley". It was the year of the British Empire Exhibition at Wembley Park, which maybe inspired the name. Downstairs, facing the Main Road was a large room, designed to be a shop. Harold & Emily Hickman moved into the rest of the house. This was to be "HICKMAN STORES", a much loved establishment for the rest of the century.
