More about this scene

Looking towards Bull Head Street, a mixture of building periods come together to provide a pleasant moment in Wigston. The Queen's Head Pub of the late 19th century is next door to the mid-20th-century house, with to the left and right two-storey shops. From this perspective the scene has changed little, but look behind the camera and there is all the poor quality 1960s buildings that one could ever wish to see!

My friend lived at the Queens Head pub shown in the Bell Street photo, when we were cold and hungry we used to go to the Bank Chip shop (just out of shot at the top right of the picture, on the curve of the road opposite the pub), we never bought anything, we had a portion of scratchings (batter bits) in newspaper with lots of salt and vinegar for free!
