From Pix'n'Mix to Student Accommodation

There are many accommodation options available to Coventry students including halls of residence for freshers and house shares throughout the city for students in their second, third or fourth years. In the city centre there is the Study Inn accommodation which is located in Market Way. The accommodation is located above the Poundland store, which in turn is located about Sports Direct. It hasn’t always been the case though, here’s a look at what was previously there before the current shops and accommodation.

Floor 2  Woolworths stock room                              Student accommodation

Floor 1  Woolworths stock room                              Student accommodation

Floor 0  Woolworths ground floor and cafe                Poundland

Floor -1 Woolworths basement floor                         Sports Direct

As you can see the building has changed drastically since Woolworths went into administration and I bet when people were in there buying their pix'a'mix, stationary and Ladybird clothing that it would be turned into student accommodation Coventry.

So in honour of the old Woolworths store lets hear about what you remember buying from there in comments below.
