    It was converted and fitted out as a hotel in 2022 but was then put up for sale without ever opening, as far as I can, a new owner opened it at the end of August.

    That central bit, above the two gold columns, is an addition, I wonder if it's for Burton signage. :emoticon-0138-think

    It's the original Burton logo, which they could potentially have issues using, as it now belongs to Boohoo.

    Thinking on now isnt the Superdrug one further down, I was looking up so no idea what shop it is now but I was down near boyses. It looked a bit different to that but still art deco style.

    Ebenezer Cobb Morley: Football Man and Football Myth
    Professor Tony Collins

    Tuesday 12 November, 12.30pm.

    Admission is first come first served. Please note that maximum capacity is 100 – we will be ticketing on the door to manage numbers.

    Almost unknown in his own time in his hometown of Hull, Ebenezer Cobb Morley now has legendary status as the man who wrote the first rules of football and who is, in the eyes of many, the true 'father of football'. To mark the centenary of Morley’s death in November 1924, we welcome Tony Collins to speak about the man, the sport, the reality and the myth.

    Boohoo not exactly squeaky clean themselfs, but I would imagine they would come down hard on anyone falling foul of them.

    That's what I was looking at. I was thinking BHS were further up the street.

    It would be an interesting read but I wouldn't pay £40 for it.

    EDIT, is it still available? HCC are still working their way through it.
