Alf Roberts Corner Shop – The Birthplace of Margaret Thatcher

We pay our own tribute to ‘The Iron Lady’ with our Alf Roberts Corner Shop, Grantham, Lincolnshire.

The young Margaret and her family lived in the flat above this interesting Victorian corner building, where ‘Maggie’ and her elder sister could be found helping out in the store room every Saturday, preparing groceries for sale.

Today the premises is occupied by a Health Centre, but her father’s original shop fascia is still preserved behind the modern day signage, and a plaque shows this to be the birthplace of one of our Nation’s iconic and divisive, leaders.

The Alf Roberts Building is a Limited Edition of 1000 ceramics, each will come with it’s individually numbered certificate, personally signed by Hazle. Only 1 left!! It is an Artist’s Proof, painted by Hazle.
