Description:Francis Edmund Spencer ran a bakery opposite the Library. He also had premises at number 93 on Holyhead Road so it would seem his "fancy" flour and delivery service were very popular in Victorian and Edwardian Handsworth. Advert taken from the programme for the Handsworth Church Bazaar in 1893.
