[4] Between 1899 and 1901, Pontings replaced their old premises on Kensington High Street with a new building designed by Arthur Sykes, which was completed in two stages and cost them £14,000.
[6] Between 1906 and 1908, Kensington Railway Station was rebuilt, and as part of the development a new arcade was built to the designs of George Campbell Sherrin.
[9] The store expansion was completed on the western side of the arcade in 1908, while Scarsdale House was demolished and the Wright's Lane extension finished under the management of H L Cabuche, Barkers's own director of building during 1911–12.
Barkers also added a cafe on Wright's Lane run by its catering subsidiary the Zeeta Company,[11] and refurbished the store in 1923.
The name however lived on, as the unsold stock from the closing down sale was transferred to Barker's own lower ground floor and was called Pontings Bargain Basement before it was renamed in 1974.
