Poole: shops facing Civic Centre
These shops stand on the gyratory system which surrounds the Poole Civic Centre, Police Station and courts. The convenience store in the foreground was also Park Gates Post Office (named because the gates of Poole Park are only a short distance away) until its closure in 2008.
