This is now a residential property.
1975
This was the Uhuru wholefoods co-op, before it moved across the road to its current location. The shop unit has now been demolished, and large cherry trees now grow on the spot shown in the photo. The tall man on the right in the photo is John Clarke who used a windfall to found Uhuru, but gave over control to the Uhuru Collective. It was a cafe and a shop for 3rd world crafts. The wholefood sales had been a buyer's co-op in Wellington Square since the late 1960s, it was passed on to Uhuru.
