It may seem like a modern company but HSBC's roots as Midland Bank make it the longest held business at this stretch of Ilford High Road. Despite its ownership changes, the Superdrug brand has now passed the 40-year mark at this premises, as has Clarks shoe shop - evidencing that not all national retail is troubled and flirting with wipeout just yet.
