More about this scene
Looking along the High Street past the beleaguered Burton Memorial, one would see little change today in the buildingscape. Danetre Bakery (left) has long gone, and the building society on the extreme left in this photograph may be the old Anglian Building Society before they became the Nationwide and moved across the road. The Milk Bar (centre right), built in 1952, has replaced the tobacconists seen in picture D83004. It was a favourite meeting place for Grammar School pupils, and is still in business today. The adjacent Lion and Lamb, however, is now called Friday's.
