More about this scene
The centre of Staines, like that of many other towns in the vicinity of London, has been rebuilt during the last century. The Colonial & American Meat Stores (right) are next to the emporium owned by Charles Cox, which is followed by Watson's, selling toys and fancy goods. This shop, in Manchester House, also acted as a registry office for those seeking domestic servants. Just by the lamp standard (centre right), and with its own premises decorated with two lanterns, are the Staines Iron Works. Across the street are the printing works and offices of the Staines Advertiser.
