This shows the entrance to the builders' merchants Travis Perkins that has recently moved its site from Victoria Crescent. Just beyond the entrance, there is the railing of the Beaver Bridge (also known as the Stone Bridge or Trumpet Bridge) that crosses the Great Stour at the same point as the original ford that gave the town its name. Further up the road, the blue facade of Home Plus Furniture can be seen. This was the former location of B&Q before it moved to its present site off Norman Road.
