A shop on Portobello Road which, in common with a lot of the other local shops, stocks a mixture of tourist and non-tourist orientated items. The adjacent entrance leads to what was the Post Office / BT training school. Now I believe it has been converted to a mix of housing and business accommodation but in its heyday it housed a manual telephone exchange and subsequently a training school. The training given was aimed at apprentices and covered the provision of telephones in customers premises as well as the jointing of external cables.
