Fish and chip shop that opened in 1961 set to close
A fish and chip shop owner is set to serve up his last scrapings more than 60 years after the business opened its doors.
Dennis Jackson, a staple part of the community in Ilkeston, Derbyshire, since 1961, said the cost-of-living crisis was partly to blame."I'll have more than a lump in my throat I imagine," he said. Jackson's Chippie, known locally as Jackos, first appeared in Market Street before moving to its current location, further down the same road, in 1982.Mr Jackson said rising food and energy costs played a big part in his decision to close up after more than 60 years"It just seemed to suit me and I got all my money together, sold my scooter and bought my own place," he said.
