The recent balcony blowout at 38 Cambridge street may have provided a little glimpse into the past. Walking past I could see that there was some sign painted on one of the older timbers that had fallen down. It was only when the guys repairing the balcony had pulled it down that I was able to see the whole lot (photo above). The carpenters and I guessed that 38 Cambridge had a little boot repair business back in the day. Nice little bit of history detective work. I hope they kept the sign!
