Description: | View from near the corner with the High Street to just past the electricity sub station. On the right can be seen the end of Pearson's the estate agents building, at one time the Royal Oak public house. The alley just next is in fact the recessed entrance to a door that led upstairs to the offices of the Clerk to the Justices of the Peace and the Registrar. In the centre is M E Howitt's a saddlers and leather goods shop that continues a tradition of such work formerly carried out by Oakley and Bavage. The New Penny Café comes next followed by a pair of cottages reputed to be amongst the oldest buildings in Alton. After the gap is the brick gable ended building that is an electricity sub station that adjoins an electrical discount warehouse. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.exe?a=query&p=gateway&f=generic_sitetext%2ehtm&_IXFIRST_=1&_IXMAXHITS_=1&cms_con_core_subtype%3acms_con_text_what=copyright&%3acms_sys_group=%22sopse%22 | Rights holder: | Margaret Smith | Subjects: | shop building cottage M.E.
