Located on the corner of Northfield Street and Washington Street, this is a newsagent, grocery store and off-licence. It is situated in the inner city area of Worcester known as the Arboretum. Next to it, in Washington Street, is a modern style telephone kiosk. An increasingly rare sight in secondary urban areas, now that mobile phones are so common.
SO8555 : Shrub Hill Station Note how the scrubby little tree obscures the portico. Am I alone in thinking there's a curse of little trees throughout the land? I think we are a lot more overgrown than many years ago. It's surprising how many shots are framed by trees (necessity sometimes rather than artistry) and many of mine just wouldn't work in the summer.
