The site has a generally L-shaped layout and includes a group of interconnected warehouses and commercial buildings. These structures were last used by the furniture department store until it closed in September 2018, dating back to the 1960s.

Apart from the three-storey No.46 High Street, which is a Grade II Listed building and served as the main retail area of the Nasons store, the rest of the buildings on the site are a varied collection of mostly two-story structures. They vary in age and quality, with many previously having an industrial character.
