Woolworths (store No.81) opened here in Weston-super-Mare in 1919 in what was an existing commercial premises. At that time the building had three dormer windows and a chimney stack on the south end at least. They seem to have been replaced with a flat or low pitched roof not visible from ground level. The store closed on 30th December 2008 and was replaced the following November by a combined Ethel Austin and Au Naturale store that closed in March 2011. By the May Poundland were moving in and leaving their former site down the street empty.
