The shop at 12 All Saints' Place was a bakers and confectioners from 1880 owned by George Higgs and known as Higgs Corner.

By 1901 his widow Fanny was running the business with the help of her unmarried daughter Elizabeth.

Alfred Harvey came to Stamford from Dorset as a journeyman baker and ran a bakers and confectioners business at 24 Scotgate. He married Frances Mary Higgs - another of Fanny's daughters.

When Elizabeth died in 1927, she left the business in All Saints Place to her sister and Frances's son, Arthur Reginald, ran the All Saints shop, now called Harveys Corner Cafe, as a bakery until his death in 1963.

Raymond Gurney then bought the shop at 24 Scotgate and the All Saints Place property ceased to be a bakery. Raymond Gurney had worked for the Co-op bakery prior to buying the shop which traded into the 1980s as a bakers and confectioners.
