A lost supermarket chain that once sold cut-price items was a familiar fixture in Greater Manchester for years.
In the 1960s, the way we shopped changed dramatically as supermarkets meant customers no longer had to travel from shop to shop for different items. Instead of asking staff behind counters to fetch things, shoppers also began to serve themselves, grabbing items after browsing the shelves.
In Greater Manchester, many will remember visiting their first supermarket and for some - that supermarket was Lennon's. The family business dates back to 1900 when Mr Frank Lennon established his grocery and provisions businesses in St Helens, now part of Merseyside.
