Time travel?

An old Victorian retail premises on Liverpool Road, Stoke, in Stoke-on-Trent looking like the town hasn't changed in decades.
Retail premises along this road were developed throughout the late 1830's (the white building to the right was the Star Inn which is thought to have been built between 1832 and 1848).
The Broadways Motors signage goes back many years, I've seen an old picture with a Ford Capri parked outside but a 1907 trade directory posted in the Staffordshire Sentinel listed this building as a butchers shop run ny John Haywood. The shop to the left in the same directory was listed as a confectioners shop run by James Heath.
Housing on this road was developed about 10 years before these shops.
The town of Stoke within Stoke-on-Trent is listed on the At Risk Register by Historic England a link to which can be found here. historicengland.org.uk/advice/heritage-at-risk/search-reg...
