Taken before we had any idea the Woolworth chain would collapse - this branch closed on 27 December 2008. Woolies had two entrances, here on English Street and around the corner from the bookies on Victoria Viaduct. Woolworth Buildings was opened in 1933, and has its name carved in the centre of the block.
