I wonder why it wasn't redeveloped with the rest of The Moor? 

 

Because unfortunately, it was the only unit on the entire precinct that was not owned by the same company. When they undertook the redevelopments, I think someone like Standard Life owned Debenhams.

 

It meant it was excluded out of all the works and partly caused the problem now.    That's why New River were desperately trying to get it under their control citing disrepair because it's becoming I'm increasingly decaying eyesore on their precinct but they have no control of.

Yep, I did my placement in their third floor Toy Department from Sheffield College there between January and October 1996.

 

Just before I left as I recall, the floor space for Toys shrank to hardly anything.
