More about this scene
This classic view has All Saints' spire behind the shops with the famous Butter Cross (at least 300 years old) in the middle. Hart and Smith next to each other seem to sell just about everything anyone could want - postcards, wooden hoops, newspapers, parasols, toys and groceries. Glaziers, the well-known family draper, milliner, outfitter and clothier is opposite the Butter Cross selling trilby hats at 3s 11d, boys suits from 7s 11d and a galaxy of other goods.
