The photograph shows Main Street at a time when vehicles could still be driven passed the Queens Head Hotel.
The sign on the side of the building reads 'The Queens Head Hotel • RESIDENTIAL • HARTLEYS PRIZE ALES'

Beyond the hotel is a news agents shop and John Haselhurst's (1907–1989) chemist shop.

The road off to the left is Flag Street and to the right, by the side of the hotel, is Victoria Street.
