The 1950s Jubilee Garage, which closed as a garage in the 1990s and was used for lockup shops afterwards, has been as close to derelict as I can imagine for a decade now, after the landlord hiked the rents. It was sold earlier this year, and I found a local government notice on one window suggesting it was going to be a Co-op food store (Image). It was unclear whether the Co-op wanted the whole building, but with the site boards up it looks like they do.
