At the bottom is the entrance to the bus station. ##17-19 was occupied by Waterways Bathrooms but the company was dissolved in March 2014 and the premises are now empty. #21 was the surgery of Dr Harold Shipman http://geraldengland.co.uk/gx/shipman.htm It was empty for time before being occupied by Oakland Domestic Appliances but they have since moved up the street to premises previously occupied by Ethel Austin, leaving #21 unoccupied again. #23 was the Co-operative Pharmacy but the Co-operative Pharmacy Group, the third largest pharmacy chain in the UK, was sold for £620m in October 2014 to Bestway who have re-branded the pharmacies as "Well Pharmacy". #25 In the early 1960s this was the temporary home Martin's Bank http://oldhyde.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/martins-bank-1965.html but since then it has been Harrison's newsagents. #27 is Lloyds Pharmacy.
