If its the building I think you mean, at one time the entrance door was on Derby Rd. The 1938 Directory records it as 18a Derby Rd and was a Ladies Hairdressers. My own memories of it are only from 1973 to present, over the years it has been a Bookmakers, DIY and Grocers. The Bookmakers had no TV's, only radio commentary and if there was a queue, it was outside the door. The DIY was only for the Sale of small items and small lengths of timber. The Greengrocer didn't stay open long. There doesn't appear to be any recordings of it in earlier directories I can view.

I was thinking 41 Chestnut Grove but found absolutely nothing on that. 1934 Directory, 41 Chesnut Grove, J F Clarke & Co, Bakers.

The 1916 Street Directory has no recording of 41 Chesnut Grove, the trades section has J F Clarke, Baker, 41 Derby Rd. I suspect with the building standing on the corner of Derby Rd and Chesnut Grove a mistake has been made, probably the same building.
1938 Directory, James Whyte, 41 Chesnut Grove, no occupation given.
Opposite 41 across Derby Rd is the bricked up building attached to the other corner house in Chesnut Grove, perhaps the Bakers shop.
