Help for name of old shop

[Lemmy_kilmister]

Anyone remember the name of the shop on Borough road opposite Jack Hatfields that used to sell false legs, appliances and trusses?
The other half thinks I dreamt it.

The Shop went bankrupt as everything cost an arm and a leg

I remember Peacock's as somewhere kids went for built up shoes and leg supports etc. In my memory it wasnt far from the Infirmary so that fits
