About 12-14 Cornmarket
12-14 Cornmarket is a brick-and-glass structure of approximately 5,300 ft² across basement, ground, and three upper floors. The site was constructed in 1958 & designed by Houston & Beaumont.
The 1958 building replaced a late‑19th century four-storey structure. Since its construction, the property has been primarily in retail use. Notably:
Graham Tiso occupied the ground floor until December 2012.
Occupied by a number of temporary retailers between 2013-2016.
Occupied by Pandora (ran by Argento as a franchise partner) between 2016 and 2021.
Occupied by Pandora (ran as a company owned store) from 2022.
The upper floors have had intermittent office/storage roles, but no long-term continuous tenancy.

Installation of a new shopfront surround, incorporating existing ground-floor windows and entrances.
Addition of new windows within existing openings on upper floors of the front façade.
