More about this scene
We are now further along Leigh Road and looking back towards the station. Trees planted c1900 are now mature, and more modern lighting has been installed. On the right is the Eagle Building, erected c1900 by William Wallis, an entrepreneur who liked large buildings. It was occupied mainly by Woolworths, but there were also small shops such as the Luton Hat Shop; Alfred Webb, a photographer; Collins, a butcher; and Bayliss, a greengrocer and florist. The edge of the recreation ground can be seen on the left.
