All four corners of the junction between the two roads were provided with shops as part of the design when Broadway was built in the late 1920s. In the 1960s, "Incredible Edibles" was a greengrocer's shop, while what appears to be an ordinary terraced house behind the post box was really New Moston post office. The latter was moved to Hollinwood Avenue in the 1980s.
