It should be noted however, that the connection with the GRENVILLE family has at present only been suggested in terms of Nos. 1, 2 and 3 Bridge Street. I am indebted to Andy Powell for locating many of the reference sources referred to below, and in providing valuable historical assistance to progress this research to its conclusions. In the main Statement of Significance Report, the history of the buildings was researched as far as possible in an attempt to assess their Heritage Value, with a view to the owners making a decision on the future of these historic Bideford properties.

I have been working as shop supervisor for almost a year now and in this time I have constantly moaned about how scruffy the shop looked from the outside. People regularly walk past the shop and say we don't go in there as it's really scruffy, and not giving the inside a chance. Although when they do come in, with the help of the team of volunteers, we have completely re-organised the inside as well,hanging and altering many things. We finally got the chance to have the outside painted and had many quotes, but unfortunately it was a cost issue. Then two lads offered to do the painting for nothing, as we were a charity. They then went about transforming the outside to how it is now. Everyone was so pleased with the result.
