I recall there being a musical instrument shop/record shop/recording studio type conglomerate there called the Complex. It was on the Woodlands Road side across from Scottish Motor Services. I was once negotiating the purchase of a guitar amp and asked the assistant about HP terms. "Oh yes", he said. "We can do that no problem." Turned out he meant they would keep the amp whilst I paid it up an £5 week and could take it away several months or years later. Thanks but no thanks.
Wasn't surprised to see them go bust soon afterwards.
