Burr's of Tongue History Project

Gordon Burr did not rest on his laurels and was always keen to keep up with the latest trends. Therefore Burr’s shop in Tongue was one of the first shops in the north to become ‘self service’.   

The new self-service shop when it first opened for business

 

The Burr family continued the tradition of working within the business until the 1980's when the business was sold to a family from the Borders who still keep the iconic name of Peter Burr Stores.
