More about this scene

The reverse view from D69020, looking south towards the ancient cross-roads of Watling Street and the Icknield Way. The prominent clock tower is Dunstable's old Town Hall, superseded in 1974 when the Borough of Dunstable was incorporated into the South Bedfordshire District Council. On the left is the Sugarloaf Hotel, its sign recalling the town's heyday as a coaching centre.

I have fond memories of Dunstable from when I was 9 years old, going to the market on a Friday with my mum and Aunt Nellie. The market was held to the right of the picture.
