What is recorded here

Here also stood the original Owen Owen store which with most of the surrounding buildings was totally destroyed by enemy action on the night of the 14th November 1940. This building was opened by the Lord Mayor of Coventry Alderman John Fennell on the 1st October 1954.

Cross Cheaping was the traditional market center of ancient Coventry, and the site has historical significance for housing the original Owen Owen store until its destruction during the Coventry Blitz in 1940.
