Martin Angove's Utterly Pointless tour of the Aber Valley

The Square from outside the Kebab Shop

Before continuing, how about comparing this modern shot with this older one?

The only common point of reference seems to be the Pant. Sorry I still couldn't quite get the angle right in 2002. Previously I thought it was due to a different focal-length lens, but now I just think that I've not quite stood in the correct place. The little lane on the right is there, but the cottages next to the pant and the railway seem to have vanished.

Of course, the bingo hall has also arrived.

The picture below was taken in 1997 before the square was redeveloped. Can you spot the differnces again?
