More about this scene

Minster on the Isle of Sheppey has two public houses in its High Street, as we can see here: The King's Arms is on the left, and The Highlander in the centre. On the right-hand side is Robertson's the tobacconist and newsagent, advertising The Daily Mail. The word Sheppey is Saxon for 'sheep island'.
