Trancentral,are you saying that's what the building was called or are you wondering what I'm talking about? Which is what many folk do.
It was maybe a second hand furiture 'emporium' if not the auction rooms. On about 3 floors, down by the old market and tunnel entrance. It was filthy black from when I remember it and it was on a junction so the end of the building at the junction was narrower than the other end of the building, iyswim, hence my saying it was a triangle. If I had a old map I'd explain better but unfortunately I don't.
Yes that's them They were on the left hand side just before Argyll St. Probably under the devlopent area. Or looking at a birds eye there seems to be old properties on what is Grange Road East in about the right place that may be some remnant. Obviously someone thought that they were of suffient importance to deposit their papers with the Archives. I wonder how many modern businesses would merit that ?
reading the archive there are no records after 1974 so that could be when they went

Bakers, yes, thank you Pinzgauer.
if i'm thinking of the same place, it now houses Wirral Minds' Fountain Project. The rest of the block is Supported Housing.
Thanks Rudebox, I think that's right. I've just looked at Google Maps and found the building I think I meant! And yes, I can see the words Antiques Triangle on it! Wow, the area looks so different to me and I've only been away about 20 years! I think I need to come back and have a mooch around.
Anyone remember the name of the place when it was a 2nd hand place then? The letter C is ringing a bell but I might be back to Corkhills!
Thanks Rudebox, that's a hundred yards or so from where I was meaning.
If you look at the map in your link, for how to find the Wirral Mind, the place I am meaning is the triangular block just down from Wirral Mind. The more I think about it, I think it had the words Commercial Buildings painted on the stonework.
