For a short period of time Fred's Discount Store opened a second store covering the emtire ground floor. They sold all manner of things from toys to furniture having taken over from the Green Shield Stamp shop. This was rather like an Argos Store, where people could redeem books of stamps, collected like vouchers from supermarkets, for articles from kitchen equipment to sports goods.
== ?Date 1907 - 1979 ==
The building was owned by the Co-operative and was an arcade of shops. Meeting rooms above were used by local political groups for organising. A photo dated October 1979 in Marilyn Yurdan's book The Changing Faces of the Cowley Road has the caption "shortly before it closed".
