The Bitten Oxford food blog reported on 20th October 2016: ''We’ve known for a while that Ru Thurston from Oli’s Thai was partnering with Ben Whyles from Door 74 to reopen Door 74 as a new collaborative project...''.<ref>http://bittenoxford.co.uk/door-74-re-opening-arbequina/</ref> The new restaurant, Arbequina, opened the following day.
During the refit in preparation for opening, an intriguing sign for 'R.A. Neville: Dispensing Chemist' was revealed and remains visible, with the current business name printed modestly on the window glass. R A Neville first appeared in directories at No 74 in 1926, until 1939. No 74 remained a chemist as A J Freeman and then J Simmonds until 1958.

The British Motor Industry Heritage trust holds [http://www.motorgraphs.com/heritage/morris-mini-van-rentaset-1961_a155420.aspx a photo] in their archive of this shop in 1961, with the name ?'Fred Dancey'. Posters in the window appear to show bicycles. Sadly the image is under [[Copyright|copyright]] and cannot be reproduced here.
