<div class="history"> [https://www.flickr.com/photos/23066873@N02/4954518523/ According to a photo on Flickr], as of c. 1985 the right-hand side (along with neighbouring [[A And S Trading Agency, 18 Station Road|A & S Trading Agency]]) were occupied by a Help The Aged charity shop. [https://www.flickr.com/photos/23066873@N02/8222722538/ According to another], by 1989 this had become the Helping Hand "charity gift shop". By May 2012 it was Fone Town, a mobile phone unlocking and accessories shop <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/7167803928/ photo]</small>. The left-hand side was previously occupied by a minicab firm called Kendall Cars <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/7167631260/ photo]</small>, but some time between May and July 2016 this changed its name to Minicab.Com and moved to [[Minicab.Com, 13 Suffolk House, George Street|13 Suffolk House, George Street]]. [https://www.flickr.com/photos/23066873@N02/8222722538/ According to a photo on Flickr], Kendall Cars had been there since at least 1989. After the departure of Kendall Cars this side remained vacant for around a year, but some time between March and July 2017 the Fone Town people took it over for use as an electronics buy/sell/exchange shop and internet cafe (which they had previously operated under the name Electronics Exchange a few doors along at [[Electronics Exchange (MOVED), 28 Station Road|number 28]]).
