This area was demolished in the 1950s and replaced by a bowling alley in 1963. This later became a Presto supermarket and was itself demolished in the 1970s. It then spent several years as a car park and became the home of the local Sunday morning Car Boot Sale. In 2012 it was completely re-developed as an entertainment/ dining complex, the Broad Street Plaza, with a built-in hotel, cinema and umpteen eating/drinking places.
