I think there was a Dept store called Owen & Owen from memory - It didn't quite reach the Burger King corner, but it covered where the snooker hall and what was TK Maxx (previousky Gattis pub). There was a plaque in Owen Owen on the very top floor that commemorated the people that lost there lives when it was bombed (circa 1940) as some people back in those days lived in accomodation on the top floor.
This is a good map of where all the bombs drop circa Nov/Dec 1940
