Newark: the south side of the Market Place
The handsome colonnaded building in the foreground was for centuries an inn, the Saracen's Head. Beyond it, the erstwhile Clinton Arms. Newark was on the old Great North Road, and did very well out of passing trade.
Notice the expanse of cobbles - there can't be that many towns in England that could match this, not in the 21st century.

Burton's, Stodman Street
Burton's had a reputation for stylish architecture in the Art Deco style, often in a more neo-classical idiom than this style which is pure Art Deco (above the rather less stylish modern shop front).

Holland & Barrett, Stodman Street, Newark
No longer a Burton shop, as it was in 2012 https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3118089 , although the architectural style is typical of Burton premises. If there was any other doubt, one only has to check the foundation stones https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7828900 and also the vents under the shop windows https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7828889 .
There is now a (personal) website dedicated to the architecture of Montague Burton stores https://laidbymonty.com/

This stone laid by . . .
Most former Montague Burton stores have at least one such foundation stone. This store has three of them with names of different family members. See https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7828888 for location.
