The photographer is standing in Collaton Road, which continues to the left. A silver Nissan Micra is turning right over the fairly recently installed mini roundabout into Cadewell Lane. The bus is a 32, en route to The Willows - a retail park which includes a huge Sainsbury's and Marks and Spencers. The nearest shop is called the Shiphay Chippy. Locally, the name Shiphay is pronounced to rhyme with 'chippy'.
