London Road used to be my local shopping street for years. Colliers (we can date when I was in there getting my school clothes one saturday when Alan Waddle scored the only goal in the Derby match) - Colliers had one of those tube payment systems. All mankind which then became Mailbox for your kecks, shirts, jeans etc. Timpsons and London's shoe shops, Woolies, Jonathan Silver, TJ's (that subway under Stafford Street), my parents got our glass cabinet out of Hardys, our office bought our snooker trophies from that shop facing the co-op which I traipsed around with my mam when it was fine fare. Had 3 piece suites from a couple of shops in London Road too. Pity how it's gone.
