They are shown from the other side of Castlehill Road. Right of centre, against the wall, is a piece of metalwork, shown in detail in Image; it features carved dragons. Although the name of the takeaway also contains the word "Dragon", I am told that the metalwork itself is earlier, and was present when the premises were called "The Keep" (which is the name that is obscured by the bus stop sign). [Update: By mid-2022, the outside of the building looked very different, and, amongst other changes, the metalwork had been removed.]
