Supermarkitsch
Rumours that Morrisons Supermarkets use the same architect as Disney are an urban myth (started by me!). This building makes a substantial impact (blot) on its gridsquare.

Island Row, off Petticoat Lane, Higher Ince
Petticoat Lane is now lined with 1920s Council Houses and more modern houses. In the 1920s there were around 60 dwellings there, which were cleared away, presumably as substandard housing. This nearby row remains. A local Mothers' Union trip to York in 1929 declared the famous Shambles to be 'no nicer than Petticoat Lane', which implies the demolished houses here looked quite quaint and attractive.

The Ex-Pub With No Name
The Site for sale sign advertises that there's planning permission for residential development. So this pub has definitely seen its last pint pulled.

The Oak Tree, Belle Green Lane
Note the open-sided wooden structure on the far right - after the ban on smoking inside pubs landlords have often erected temporary canvas shelters for their recalcitant smokers. This looks a little more permanent.
