AS forensic teams continue to search the Clean Plate in Gloucester, it has emerged that serial killer Fred West once owned a café in the same street.
The Green Lantern owned by Fred West was situated on Southgate Street, the same street as the Clean Plate, where police are searching for evidence of Mary Bastholm, who went missing as a teenager in the 1960s
The café, that has since been demolished and turned into flats, was jointly owned by West and his father-in-law Bill Letts.
Letts, Rose West’s father lived in a flat with wife Daisy above it.
It is reported that one of Fred West’ victims, 18-year-old Shirley Robinson, first met the mass-murderer in the Green Lantern in April 1977.
