Our family business was founded in 1876 by my great great grandfather Thomas Brooker.


Our family business was founded in 1876 by my great great grandfather Thomas Brooker. I found this photo in the attic recently - taken in 1898 T Brooker & Sons Ltd 39 Bucklersbury Hitchin Herts  probably taken to commemorate the opening of the new Bucklersbury shop - the original shop having been in Station Road (now Walsworth Road). The company is still going strong and is still run by the family. There is a bit more information about the history of the firm on this link http://www.tbrooker.co.uk/about-us/history-of-brookers
