More about this scene

It looks so peaceful ... how times change. North of the bypass are Rumbridge Street and the High Street, offering quieter shopping streets. South of the bypass are late 19th- and 20th-century housing and a large industrial area leading down to Eling creek. Nearby is the brick church of St Winifred, built in 1937.
