The large building just beyond the memorial was long ago replaced by newer BOROUGH COUNCIL offices. Beyond that is where Coval Lane was constructed, and across that road is where the PAVILION CINEMA stood. Just past the car parked on the right, where the man is, can be seen the turning of BROOMFIELD ROAD. In the background to the right there is a sigh that can been seen saying "TEAS." This was for many years still referred to as the greasy spoon cafe, and many a stop was made there. It remained open way past the 1970's.
