In 1949 the shop at No 2 became D J Clarke’s radio and television store. They added No 4 newly built in 1951 as D J Clarke (Biggleswade) Ltd. Following a serious fire at No 2 in 1955 Clarke’s moved to Hitchin Street.

I found this in the 'Biggleswade Chronicle' dated 19th October 1956:
“Having purchased the business of Messrs. D. J. Clarke (Biggleswade) Ltd., we advise all interested parties that the business shall continue as at present, except under the name of H. Gale, (formerly D. J. Clarke (Biggleswade) Ltd.), 37 Hitchin Street.”
