Dark red brick residential architecture. The other interesting feature of this photo is the wooden pole radiating telephone cables to the surrounding houses. Once a common sight, by 2010 they had become rare, as underground fibreoptic cables had largely replaced overhead copper.

The church of St Michael and All Angels can be seen behind. Note also the water point provided by British Waterways for the use of boaters.
