This parade of shops at the western end of Long Elmes is typical of dozens of such blocks to be found across the London suburbs. Originally there might have been traditional grocers, greengrocers and butchers; nowadays food takeaways and convenience stores are more common. See Stacey Harris's view from six years earlier Image; not much appears to have changed although the second unit from the left is now occupied.
