In 2010 Image this group of shops comprised Peters Beds, Hyde Domestics and Big Bite Pizza. By 2012 Image Big Bite Pizza had changed to the Hyde Kebab House (although the shop seemed to be boarded up rather than shuttered) and Hyde Domestics had been replaced by a tattoo and piercing parlour called "To The Point". By 2015 Image Peters Beds had relocated but it appeared some stock was still being stored there. The former Hyde Kebab House still looked closed. The tattoo parlour had been taken over by Beak and Claw Pets & Aquatics. In February 2016 Image a sign on the former kebab shop said "New Cafe Opening Soon" while Beak and Claw is permanently shuttered. In September 2016 Image the sign about a new cafe opening had gone. Beak and Claw had also moved out of the shop although still operating from a unit in the nearby Adamson Industrial Estate. Come to July 2017 and the middle shop appears to be being fitted out for new tenants. Meanwhile the one next to Saffron is having major work carried out.
