    Not sure, somewhere on Abbey Street and it was someone's name for the name of the shop ... if that makes sense! It's not there anymore either.

    I don't think it was on Lr Abbey st or Middle Abbey st but before M+S moved in, where their loading bay is on Abbey st, there were shops across the road from O'Connors jeans, just before the start of the Jervis center.

    Was that the place with all the graffiti?

    There was also a small business park on the junction of Abbey and Jervis, Oli Campbell ex rugby player had a clothes store in it, might have been more?
