<b>Note:</b> As of November 2015 this may have closed (though we haven't confirmed this yet).


African grocery shop on the corner of Church Street and Old Palace Road. It opened in April 2015, having moved from its previous location at 3 Overton Yard (where it was variously known as Alfi Afro, Alfred's Food Store, and Cape Coast Market).

Accessibility: A temporary ramp to get in, not particularly well-aligned with the threshold.

It was previously an army surplus shop, but as of early December 2012, the premises were vacant, shuttered, and advertised to let.

In Autumn 2013, plans were announced to run a series of pop-up shops in the space. The first of these, a babies/children's clothes shop photo, opened in October 2013 and had closed again by January 2014 photo of stripped-out interior taken through shutter.

In June 2014, the pop-up shop reopened in larger premises across the road at numbers 86-66.

Number 81 remained empty photo for a few months, but by July 2014 an appliances (white goods) shop called UK Monster Deals photo had opened. This closed again some time between November 2014 and March 2015 photo.

Existence last checked in June 2015.
