James Gray: This view is taken from the same spot [as jgc_31_124] six years later, on 4 May 1992. By then five houses had replaced the business premises. This infilling of small areas with houses in central districts is to be commended. In the distance, the roofs of similarly recently built houses in Centurion Road. jgc_31_125
2021: Just under thirty years on, the only significant difference in this view of St Nicholas Road, apart from the style of cars, is the style of pavement protection bollards. (Photographer: Mathia Davies)
