These are interconnected on two levels (one is two-steps below the other) and accessed via two stairways, back, and front, the front stairway still with its original rails, this being the main feature of the hallway.

It leads to a spiral stairway up to the office and dry stock room. To the rear of the shop are wooden pigeon-holes, which surround the area.
