It was inside the Waitrose Store, which is in Marmion Road Southsea, before John Lewis's moved it back into Knight & Lee's in Palmerston Road albeit in a much reduced space.

Hi Janie, I don't remember that particular move just across Palmerston Road. When I'm next in Knight and Lee's I'll ask.
They also had a school uniforms shop on the corner of Elm Grove and Grove Road South. They were deemed to be too expensive so it was down to the Coop in Fratton Road for most of us!
Green Shield stamps eh? Golly! Sticking all those gummy sheets into books and queuing on a Saturday to redeem for something considered exotic like an ovenproof Pyrex casserole dish and lid which we still have in mint condition. Probably used just the once.
