Newbury - Woolworths various pictures across the years


Woolworths opened in Newbury on 3rd March 1928.

Following a disastrous trading period during the year 2008, it finally succumbed to commercial pressures and closed for the last time on the 30th December 2008.

When Woolworths finally closed, it was trading at 13-15 Northbrook Street although it had expanded into adjacent property over the years. I believe the last major extension when the front facia was completely remodelled was in the early sixties. Several extensions at the rear took place at a later date.
