In the eighth and final novel describing the Morrow family of Newgate Street, we find them twenty-one years later during 1966. The business is now being managed by Maggie and Anthony who do not have a great deal of hope for its long-term future due to the changing requirements of Londoners, many of whom are daily commuters and not members of local families who had lived in the area for generations. Maud and Richard are now in their seventies and retired. They live above the hardware store but still show a keen interest in it, as well as their family and friends. Therefore, the elderly couple find living in the modern world difficult because not only are they surrounded by powerful memories but find it increasingly difficult to accept the contemporary concepts that the youth enjoy. With every passing year they know the world that offered them the best years of their life is fast disappearing as their deep affection for each other increases.
