More about this scene

We are looking in the opposite direction from E167015, page 25, along Market Street. Burton's is pre-eminent on the left, and Pricerite is on the right, next to three shoe shops, Lennard's, True-Form and Frisby's. All have gone. The Wilts & Dorset Bank building is in the distant centre, towering over the roof of the parish church at the far end.
