Used to go in most weeks as i worked just up the way from it but it was basically an Army surplus shop selling ex Army radio sets ,crystals ,cables, anything army related components ex MOD and tons of other stuff.
Bought quite a few Army radio sets from it costing me about £5 each as i recall ,but this was in the late 70s early 80s .
Maybe someone can put a name to the place?

It was WS Surplus Supplies Ltd. I used to call in there when in Oxford.
On the other side of the street was Westwoods, which sold electronic components - run by a Mr (Leslie?) Westwood, who also owned the wholesale business downstairs - Duval.
