This was previously a bike shop (during the 1980s at least). The Michelin Man stickers in the window date from that incarnation. Prior to that it was a grocers shop. Manchester Libraries have a photo showing how it used to look. http://www.images.manchester.gov.uk/web/objects/common/webmedia.php?irn=38745 The police raided the property in 2009 following a tip off and recovered a large number of stolen items. http://menmedia.co.uk/manchestereveningnews/news/s/1311722_community_order_for_handling_stolen_goods_
