This is the only example I intend to submit of the kind of modern buildings now littering the High Street. Some are more attractive developments, but it is all being done piece-meal, hence the present "hotch-potch" of residences covering over 100 years!! The developers seem to be waiting to pounce on each property as it comes up for sale. I do hope they slap a preservation order on the remaining Edwardian residences!
