This description is incorrect, as Monday Market Street is to the left of the subject premises, which now form the entrance to Sainsbury’s, on the corner of Sidmouth Street.

Stratton Sons and Mead did indeed have the premises redeveloped, but as Wiltshire’s on this site.

They moved premises to a much larger building at the top of The Brittox, at the western end of Maryport Street.
