Oaklands Road is behind the camera; Lea Road is to the left and right. Much of the area was developed in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Most corners had a shop on, and some of these are used as such even now, this being a multi-ethnic community in which small mini-markets and general stores are frequently found. Ahead along Owen Road about a hundred metres is a site where five roads converge (counting Owen Road as two!), and there are several well established small businesses, see Image] and other images.
