Kelly's Directory 1976 No 92 Reeve's (Oxford) Ltd, DIY supplies
In the late 1970s shortly after the Penultimate Picture Palace was opened by Bill Heine, his wife opened a pancake restaurant opposite, I think in No 92. It was painted black to match the cinema. The chef was from Yugoslavia, called Dragan.
In 1998 the upstairs floors of No 92 were squatted, and it was here that the meeting took place to plan the occupation of the former Oxford LMS station. The building where the Said Business School now stands was occupied from May to September 1998 in protest against the 6-lane junction, the felling of trees, the removal of a listed building and the questionable source of Wafiq Said's fortune.
