Road: High Street, Teddington
Property: 83-85
Listed grade II (1982)
Currently the "Shambles Wine Bar" (formerly Stapleton's butcher's shop), these two properties are now one. Previously – in 1800 – there was a house and a shop on the site of no. 85 owned by a Mr Bird, a shoemaker, and a butcher's house on the site of no. 83, which eventually became a shop. By 1863 the butcher's shop, then occupied by a Joseph Wade, extended over part of no. 85 providing a larger shop frontage with a cottage to the rear. In the 1880s a Mr Ive took over the business and three of his assistants lived in the cottage, so it became known as Ive's cottage. The cottage had been demolished by the time Stapleton took over the business in the 1950s. Since becoming a wine bar and restaurant in the 1980s the combined property has been extended to the rear.
"My Dad talked about two cottages, 85a and 85b high street. Both were destroyed in the war he said.? The plan you have showing 83 and 85 is a recent plan. The plot shown as 85 was part of 83 when we were there. It had a window to the street but when my Dad converted it into a freezer section (all the rage in the 70s) and added the door, People immediately started to refer to it as 85. The postman even started putting post under the door to 85. It those days 1968-78 the high street ran 81 chemist next door now Pinocchio, 83 Stapleton and Son then 87 Gears Cycle Shop with 85 missing. You would go down the alley to the side of the shop into a small garden with a swing then through a gate in a fence to 85a/85b high street, both then destroyed or demolished. I used to love digging deep holes in that part of the 'wasteland' as I found all sorts of pottery, Bones, rusty toys etc etc. He also talked about Mr Ives and the Ghost.
