significant to the history of the development of Derby.
The site currently occupied by the Derby Woolworths supermarket has been associated with the retail trade from the early 1900's. It was previously the site of various stores including McGovern and Thompson's Store and Kanpp's Store. The town's first hotel was built adjacent to this site and the store's location is believed to have been convenient for camel, bulloch and donkey teams arriving at the end of the tramway.
