In November 2019 a two-storey Mountain Warehouse opened in the former Second Cup unit. Then Clothing retailer Hobbs also recently opened in what used to be the Roman Originals clothing shop.

Then in December Cafe Brasilia opened in the lower mall unit, which was previously occupied by Patisserie Valerie, which closed when the chain went into administration.
