Historical version 21 of Grace's Hairdressing, 1 Derby Road (view current version)

  • Address: 1 Derby Road, CR0 1TP

Jewellery and fashion accessories shop on Derby Road near West Croydon Station. It opened in September 2014. It sells jewellery, scarves, and bags.

Note: As of late October 2014, a notice has appeared on the shutter photo stating "Sorry we are closed 21-10-14". It isn't clear whether this indicates a permanent or temporary closure.

It's a really tiny space, essentially just a corridor down the side of Eva Hairdressers next door.

There's also a taxi sign above the frontage, but this appears to just be an advert, rather than a sign that one can book a cab here.

It was previously occupied by a gold buyer, payday loan, pawnbrokers, and cheque cashers called Croydon Gold Buyer photo; this opened in late 2011 but closed again some time between March 2013 and mid-2014. (The last time we noted it as being definitely open was in March 2013, and the final tweet on their Twitter account was posted in early July 2013. As of April 2014 we hadn't seen it open for a while, despite walking past quite frequently, and as of July 2014 the shutter had been covered in graffiti and Cash And Carry Beds next door were regularly propping display mattresses up in front of it.)

On the evening of 11 September 2014 there were people inside sorting out displays of what looked like scarves and jewellery. A few days later a new shop opened selling scarves, jewellery, and makeup. According to a member of staff it was going to be called Jewellery World once the sign was up.
