More about this scene

This view clearly shows the details of the ornate pillars supporting the eagles, and the lion mask spouts. It also shows the fine building of E & W Anstie Ltd, the tobacco manufacturers, which is now a clothes shop. The wooden hut on the roof was used by aircraft spotters during the Second World War.
