was there a cafe/tea room upstairs? im pretty sure my gran used to take us there! 

Christies did indeed have one in County Place but I think you are right there was a tea room upstairs for a while in the shop illustrated.  Entrance from South Methven Street?

Taken from I think was Ainslie place (could be wrong) and it's looking through the constructed metal frame of the Ice rink, so Muirton park looks far off. Just to clarify the authenticity of the pic, it was "acquired" from the Dewars centre :)
