Here are another couple of images from Colchester:
The junction of North Hill, Middleborough and St. Peter's Street, which is at the bottom of
North Hill. This photograph, from a 1966 book called Colchester: An Historic Townscape by Essex County Council's Planning Department is of special significance to me, as I now live in St. Peter's Street.
The same junction photographed a few minutes ago. There's no sign of the old fluorescents, which won't surprise anyone. The double fluorescent on the corner now has a 250w SON SGS203 at 10 metres with an appropriately cooked bowl, and the fluorescents in the road behind were replaced with the blue-painted GEC Z8524s at 10 metres when the adjacent cattle market was moved to the edge of town about 30 years ago.
It's certainly nice to know that my road once had an iconic three-eighty at the end of it!
