Description
Apparently begun by Norman Jones & Rigby in 1939.  During the war it was used as a storeroom and bomb shelter.  After the war, according to Pevsner, it was completed using the modular system devised for M&S by their consultant architect, Robert Lutyens.  The black granite cladding was used on one other Marks and Spencer store, the one on Oxford Street in London.
