Description:Looking east along City Road from the corner of Manor Street. Christchurch Street is coming in on the right. The building on the right hand edge is the old Royal Oak public house, now demolished. In the far distance is Victoria Square and in the centre the junction with Fountain Street, now with traffic lights.
The left hand side of City Road still has a mix of shops but much of the right hand side has been demolished and redeveloped with car parking and offices. Uncle Arthur's Stores were radio electricians.
