In the area between Twickenham Green and the River Crane the urban fabric is all fairly small-scale - mostly terraced housing of various dates, though largely Victorian. Streets are narrow - some of them very narrow. This former shop is pretty typical of the area (and is one of a number of survivors). The 'ghost sign' seems to read 'Noted Bacon Stores'. More recent occupiers were a firm called Octain Construction.
