A BUTCHERS in Sunningdale is celebrating 90 years of being in business.
As a nation of shopkeepers, family-run businesses have long been a staple of the British high street.
One of the difficulties of running one is the idea of who will take the reins and succeed after every generation.
However, a business which can last 90 years under the same family name is a great achievement and a testament to the family business model.
Lewis of Sunningdale in Chobham Road has celebrated its 90th anniversary of trading.

To give you an idea of how much work has gone into the business, we will look at its history from the 1930s until the present day.
The Lewis family has been part of the butcher business since 1931 priding themselves on selling 'great quality' meat.
The family butchers, established by Nigel Lewis’s grandfather, was even a favourite of Sir Bruce Forsyth and Sir Kenneth Branagh.
Lewis of Sunningdale can also boast about their sausages - which the butchery has sold since 1931.
