The main subject, Monica's shop, used to be Sworder's Greengrocers and had crates of vegetables on display under the slate-roofed canopy. The low, false-fronted, building towards the right of the photograph, with the two white wings, used to be a small cinema but this was destroyed in the 1950s. Since the photograph was taken the site has been demolished and the Crowthorne Library and apartments now stand there. To the left,just beyond the Monica's, and many years ago, was Bucklers sports car factory.
