About a year ago, the Image was moved to this new position, close to the Derby Road crossroads. Its original position was in the distance as we look now. The only reason I can think of for this movement is that, after the bus lane was put in a few years ago, it was difficult for the postman to stop to empty the box without causing an obstruction – whereas now he can park just around the corner.
