The premises were previously occupied by a hardware shop called DIY Den, which according to a Croydon Advertiser report was opened in January 2009 by one of the ex-managers from much-loved hardware shop Turtle's. According to the lady who took over the premises next (see below), DIY Den closed some time around March 2012.

Another DIY shop/convenience store called St Georges News/Food/Hardware photo opened in October 2012, stocking things such as tools, gardening items, soft drinks, newspapers, magazines, greetings cards, cleaning products, cigarettes, painkillers, batteries, biscuits, tea, coffee, soya milk, savoury snacks, confectionery, and various types of lentils. However, this had closed again by March 2013.

As of March 2013, the shutters were down, a lockbox had been installed outside, and peering through a hole in said shutters revealed that the stock had been removed from the interior photo.
