As of December 2019 it's been vacant for over three years, though there has been sporadic action throughout this time including on-and-off building work, a notice in the window dated May 2017 <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/34773791221/ photo]</small> stating that an application had been made for a premises licence for late night refreshment and supply of alcohol, a sign that appeared in July 2017 claiming it would be opening soon as a restaurant called Niazi Food House <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/36247088676/ photo]</small>, the appearance of decorative cut-outs on the upper floors, and work in late 2019 involving either the removal or the installation of some sort of kitchen equipment.
It was previously an Indian and Bangladeshi restaurant called Depa Indiana <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/8750565721/ photo]</small>, but this closed down by early October 2016. According to a member of staff at Niazi Food And Wine [[Niazi Food And Wine, 3 Derby Road|next door at number 3]], it's likely to become a chicken and/or pizza shop, as the owners have had difficulties recruiting Indian/Bangladeshi chefs.
