More about this scene

George Lowe's butcher's shop has pride of place here, next to the emporium of T L Jones. Further down on the left, and beyond the two cars, a grocer sells Lyon's tea and Wills Star cigarettes. The little Austin 7, or 'Ruby', in the right foreground predates the photo by some 10 years – it is a 1920s model. The buildings have little to commend them, and the picture has a drab feel - perhaps the lack of sunshine amplifies this.
