The property, on the corner of Chester Road (A452) and Beech Road, left, is occupied but the corner shop appears to have been closed for some time. The street nameplate for Beech Road is a cast-iron type from an earlier age. A map from between 1888 and 1913 shows that this section of 'Old Chester Road' was relatively undeveloped; there was an isolated property on this corner. The view is across Chester Road from the corner of Church Road. Photo number 7843038.
