SITEDESC
In 1838 Market Street included Emerson Muschamp Bainbridge and William Alder Dunn's drapers and fashion shop. In 1849 weekly takings were recorded by department (there were 23) possibly making the premises England's first department store. This ledger survives and is held by John Lewis Partnership's archive. The two partners fell out and went their separate ways. Emerson Bainbridge died in 1892 and his sons took over the business. The store had 11,705 square yards of floor space. 600 staff were employed. In 1897 the business became a private limited company. In 1953 ownership transferred to the John Lewis Partnership. By 1974 the department store became one of the most successful in the country. In 1976 the store moved into Eldon Square shopping centre, becoming the largest John Lewis store outside London. In 2002 the store lost the Bainbridge name and was re-branded John Lewis.
