[https://www.flickr.com/photos/23066873@N02/5034935430/ According to a photo on Flickr], as of 1989 the premises were occupied by a furniture shop called Heritage Pine, and before that by a branch of Halfords.

As of December 2011 it appeared to be two separate shopfronts,
with Ideal Discounts <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/6969588805/ photo]</small> on the left and Ideal Beauty <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/6488483851/ photo]</small> on the right, but internally it was a single shop. The left-hand frontage advertised "electrical appliances, hardware, DIY, [...] kitchenware, bed linen, bedding accessories, gift items", but as of May 2013 these were not in evidence inside, except for a tiny selection of household items tucked away on one wall.

By early 2014 the signs for Ideal Discounts had been painted over.
