In a street of restaurants and fast food outlets, this four-storey building stands out. The datestone on the gable says 1906. While it might have been a hatmaker's (hatmaking was a major industry in Luton) it looks more like a former furniture showroom. It is seen square-on in Burgess von Thunen's Image from 2013. In this photo, note the large Salvation Army charity shop on the right.
