In the first quarter of this century the main (Restaurant) building was put to popular use as cocoa rooms for local workers and their families. During the same period the Gathering
Place site has passed through various hands as a Laundry, Skating Academy and after the Great War, as premises for a Motor Company. A Child Welfare centre and an Antique
 Dealer occupied the respective buildings during the "Swinging Sixties" and, prior to the refurbishment by Maranto's (1983) the main site was used by a manufacturer of window blinds.
