This
branch first opened at this address in 1955.
Between
1964 and 1965, extensive alterations transformed the property,
and an Office was constructed on the first floor, which
became the Registered Head Office of M. Whitfield Ltd. (which
had originally been at M. Whitfield's first branch at Sunderland
Road, Horden).
In
the early 1970s, Mr.J.W.Grundy Optometrist opened an Optical
Department on the First Floor.
M
Whitfield Ltd's Head Office was transferred to St. Aidan's
Terrace, Trimdon Station in 1979 and Mr. J.W.Grundy Optometrist
expanded his Optical Department into the vacated premises.
