Cooper & Leatherbarrow was established in 1902 by Ernest Cooper in a former photographer's business on the corner of Russell Street and Northgate in Darlington (opposite to where Marks & Spencers currently stands). George Leatherbarrow joined the practice in 1912 and the business became Cooper & Leatherbarrow in the mid-1930s.
Both my husband and myself have unusual and difficult (but differing) eye problems that require a specialised Optometrist to dispense our lens prescriptions. We have found Alex Wade and his staff at Rees & Wade to give expert advice in a friendly but most professional and competent manner.
Your eye care should not be something that you attend to in your lunch hour, you should not be part of a "quick turn-around" coming away with spectacles that may not be fully suited to your needs. Here at Wilkinson Opticians we take time to ensure that we fully understand the reason for you calling upon our services; we listen to your problems and offer the best possible advice and the best possible product especially for YOU.
There have been independent opticians at 48 High Street providing eye care for the people of Spennymoor since the 1920s. In recent years we have realised that there are other areas of healthcare that could be provided in our easily accessible, award winning practice in Spennymoor Town Centre.
