More about this scene
This is the busiest and main shopping street in Great Yarmouth. Everything is available here, from wine (left) to shoes (right). The family-owned businesses are thriving with the absence of department stores. Most of the attractive lamp-posts are used for advertising. The policeman in the foreground is casting a watchful and perhaps thirsty eye on the wine barrels being transported slowly up the street. A number of superstitious people are avoiding walking under the window cleaners' ladders on the left and right.
