More about this scene

This view was taken from the Rutland Arms Hotel. Hulley's, a local coach firm, have one of their vehicles parked on the bus stand. Their stage carriage service reached - and still does - some of the more remote villages in the area. The bank is now operated by The Royal Bank of Scotland. On the right, the Red Lion proudly displays its AA and RAC accreditation.
