Robinson & Cleaver, at 56 Donegall Place, was "Northern Ireland's most famous Department Store."
One of my favourite ties, a navy blue, polka dot silk tie which I wear to this very day, was purchased at Robinson Cleaver's.
The Bank Buildings, at Castle Place, was a lovely store in its time. It had been taken over by House of Fraser, I seem to recall.
The Belfast Co-operative Society's store was by far the largest of them all. It was vast, in fact.
