  • I think you will find it was Budgens.
    The company was sold to the Irish Musgrave group in 2002 which went on to sell many of the outlets. However the remaining stores were sold to the wholesaler Booker Group in 2015 and Booker was taken over by Tesco in 2017. Those stores that Tesco deemed viable as Tesco Locals were changed to that brand over the intervening years.

    If you look elsewhere on the site there are many items that relate to South Green and Great Burstead.

  • What was that shops name in South Green to the far left on the second photo (it’s currently a Tesco’s)? And also do you have other photos from the 1980s of South Green and Great Burstead?
