More about this scene
A remarkably foreshortened shot, westwards down West Street, with the 1785-built arch (far left) being the north- west corner of the Town Hall. The road sign points down South Street which is almost invisible between the public building and the shops. Colmer`s Hill (right of centre) forms the distant skyline. The Royal Oak is on the north side of the street (right). The busy mix of cyclists and cars is typical of a 1950s street scene. The closest cars are a Morris 10 (left) and a Standard 9 (right) with a Humber behind.
