Please someone confirm this for me as when I have mentioned this to people in the past, they look at me like I'm on wacky backy.

In the late 80s early 90s there was two HMV's in town. One was upstairs in Church Street which you went up the escalators to. The other one was a single floor mini shop in Lord Street. If memory serves me right I would say it is kind of where French Connection is now.

Also, and this is the bit that people look at me funny when I metion this, next to the upstairs HMV in Church Street there was a Burger King next to it. Please confirm this is correct. I remember my Auntie and Uncle taking me there before I went to see Ghostbusters in the Lime Street Pictures!

I remember there being two HMVs, dont remember that Burger King though.

Yes, I remember the 2 HMV's. The one in Lord st was only small. There was a cafe next to the Church st one (up the escalator) - not sure if it was Burger king or not. (it is a possibility).

I can remember when it was Woolworths cafe. That's going back some years.

Yes Kev, the hmv shop is now going to be a walk through arcade, so yes, we don,t have another hmv in town.

You are right about it Kev, once, many years ago, I had a Chrimbo job on security at Church street HMV, and there was a Burger King next to it.

I remember the burger king up the escalters, on the same side of church st as coopers buildings ( old wh smith store ),then I think further up the street it was C&A , and Top Shop, then I think it was burgerking and HMV,

Yes Kev, the hmv shop is now going to be a walk through arcade, so yes, we don,t have another hmv in town.


Yes, I too can confirm the small HMV in Lord St and obviously the one upstairs next to Top Shop with the Burger King next to it.

Chippie, we do still have a HMV in town, it's in the old Gas place in Bold St.

Oh yes, sorry Ged, I,ve given out wrong information.
