Boston Road, 99% of which lies behind the photographer and outside the town's boundary peters out here as motorists join the B1517 (South Gate) ahead. By the street lamp nearest the photographer is part of "The Pines". This large house, office/s and a seed warehouse was laid out as a nursery and seedsmen's collection centre for John Sharp c.1830. Later on, c.1880, it was greatly enlarged for Charles Sharp who specialised in dealing in seeds. This two storey building, together with the main house and offices (neither of which are visible here) have all been converted in apartments.
