A fine ensemble. The nearer red-brick building was built for the Cahn's Nottingham Furnishing Company in 1906 by John Howitt. The adjacent seven-bay terracotta section, by William V. Betts, dates from 1914-16, and Betts returned to add the final section with its copper dome in 1925-26. Why isn't it listed? The whole group was brought under the Co-op banner after 1945. It was converted to shops, offices and flats in 2005-07.
