Long shot - looking for a particular cycle shop in St Albans

Can anyone help me? It's called Townsends and the address I have for it is 167 (or 171 according to another reference to it I found) Hatfield Road, St Albans.

I have a number for it but it doesn't take in-coming calls.

Does anyone know if this shop still exists? I am looking for it to repair an old bike that came from there - the bike is quite unusual so that's why I'm being so specific.

Pennies - I don't recall seeing a bike shop on the Hatfield Road. My latest and greatest Yellow Pages for the area doesn't list a Townsends. Perhaps they closed?

Good luck!

The only (2) bike shops I can think of in St Albans are on Victoria Street. Was it on a street corner in Fleetville? If so, I think it is now a florist. Sorry.

There is quite a good one out in Jersey Farm. They service all sorts of interesting bikes - may be worth giving a call.
