This is the right-hand side of the Riley mural Image] and shows the building, in the 1960s, of the square which bears the name of the motor company. A surveyor measures angles with a theodolite. To his right can be seen part of the finished development, with a five-storey block of flats overlooking shop units. The diamond insets on the green ground show various traders occupying these shops, which by the time this photograph was taken (2022) were mostly shuttered and empty. To the right can be seen the Riley motors badge. The pattern of circles and semicircles alongside appears in relief on one of the buildings of Riley Square, now a Farmfoods shop.
