  Beautiful building. Is that an advertisement in the window? Love the decorative touches in the 2nd photo.

  Now there’s a coincidence, CGP, I have been getting my hair cut there for over 30 years and Dave Parker, the owner, has become a good friend of mine over that time. There is an article about him here:

  The Empress next door is another old haunt of mine from the 80s when Lori Dixon ran it. Milburn House is built on the site of the birthplace of Admiral Lord Collingwood hence the blue plaque and the bust above the lower entrance in the picture.
