This is a useful spot in the street: the Post Office is on the left, the Trustee Savings Bank is adjacent to the bus, and the shiny new frontage of the Co-op is second on the right.
New Road is one of the main shopping streets of the town. The roads seem empty by today's standards. In the foreground is British Home Stores, and Hepworths is on the extreme left.
