Cara has many fond memories of her dad running Boden’s Falcon Restaurant, which overlooked Low Pavement, a snack bar and chip shop all in the same building which customers entered from Falcon Yard.

She said: “I think one of the unique selling points was that you could have your fish and chips how you wanted, ie served upstairs by waitresses followed by classic English puddings – jam roly-poly and custard was a particular favourite, or in the snack bar with your pals and a cuppa, wrapped in newspaper down the yard and you could even buy chilled battered fish in the front shop to heat at home later.
