At this junction Owen Road passes Lime Street (ahead to the right past the white-painted wall) and Rayleigh Road behind the camera. The area contains mainly early 20th or late Victorian terraced housing. The community is racially very mixed. Many corner shops still thrive, and other premises also support a variety of small businesses. In this image, on the left is a trader in fresh or frozen meat, poultry and sea food. On the corner of Lime Street opposite is a corner grocer store, oops, I mean Superstore and off licence. In Owen road is a catering business and a hair/beauty/massage specialist, which I haven't tried yet ;-)
