A quiet scene on Northumberland Street a few days before Christmas 2020 as early evening shoppers disperse and shops begin to close for the night. Signage attached to lampposts reminds shoppers about the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the need to use 'social distancing' and the temporary one-way system for pedestrians on the street (this was largely ignored).
