That's Sheffield, possibly going down into Woodseats. John Wenninger had a couple of butchers shops.

Those good old days with banks in the high street (Barclays and Lloyds) and the occasional bank robbery rather than on line fraud

Funny that. The rear wheel drive Escort seems to be making progress , whilst the front wheel drive Mini estate seems to be stuck!

Re: Just a nice period picture
I ran a Mark II Escort 1100 like that (WBF930S iirc) and had no trouble in snow at all. In fact most cars were okay as long as you had decent tread - but skinny tyres like the 155R 13's on Escorts etc put all the weight on a much narrower area.
Minis were ok in the snow but the Maxi and Princess were the snow kings.
The location on Sheffield is Eccleshall Road South, largely unchanged apart from banks and butchers vanishing, but it's a nice area without the usual scum vape shops, turkish barbers or betting shops.
