More about this scene

The growth of the urban one- stop convenience store and filling station unexpectedly reflects a return to the situation found here, where F & F Hawell's shop is located next to the village petrol pump. Improved communications are indicated by the telegraph poles but the absence of roof-top aerials shows that the television had yet to find a place in every home.
