Fore Street, Looe - 10 February 2017

This is the kind of shot of which I want to post more but there is only so much time in (photographic) life. Unremarkable now, imagine viewing this in one hundred years now much as you might today look at a photograph from the momentous year of 1917 as the whole of Europe metamorphosed from its 19th century state.

In Fore Street, Looe, the New Peking Garden Chinese Restaurant occupies a not uncommon first floor location with the ground floor shared between its entrance and Madhouse Girl, a fashion store. The Looe Co-op is notable for the fact that it has received its rebranding - which I really like - and that only a short distance to the north is the East Looe Co-op. I would be interested to know how there came to be two branches in such proximity.
