Alperton: Mount Pleasant

Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 5 May 2008

Viewed looking towards the junction of Mount Pleasant with the A4089 Ealing Road, the most remarkable thing here is the illustration of the changing demographics. The middle shop on the right is a shop selling Polish goods. The text on the fascia board reads 'Polski sklep' and 'Dobre bo polskie', which, using an on-line translator gives 'Polish store' and 'Good because Polish'.
