Description

Explore the history of Britain's high streets through this detailed study of retail multiples. From the late 19th century through the 20th century, famous brands like Boots, Burton, Marks & Spencer, and Woolworths shaped the character of local shopping districts.

Readers can follow the architectural evolution of retail through generous illustrations. The collection includes archive and modern photographs that capture everything from the Edwardian grandeur of Boots and the Art Deco style of Burton to the utilitarian post-war designs of Littlewoods. It provides a visual and historical look at the stores that defined an era of British commerce.
