Historical version 12 of Costa Coffee, 129-131 North End (view current version)
Business premises on North End.
As of October 2012, it appears to have been acquired by Costa Coffee, as they have been granted a planning application for a change of use "from A1 (retail) to a mixed use (A1/A3) coffee shop".
According to a photo on Flickr, as of c. 1981 the premises were occupied by a clothes shop called Coles. According to another photo on Flickr, by c. 1985 this had been replaced by a shoe shop called Top Men (see also a photo from December 1990).
The occupant as of December 2011 was a shoe shop called Sole Trader (or possibly Soletrader or Sole|Trader) photo. This had closed by May 2012, with the premises boarded up and advertised to let. In November 2012, however, Sole Trader opened another branch a little further along the street at number 72.
