Brits might note the verandah over the footpath, an Australasian custom. i guess in the UK the servants did the shopping and too bad if they got wet, although continued today. Without does make for better street scene. Most verandahs are now supended so carelss parkers do not bring them down. There were some charming village style petrol stations here with neatly integrated roofs but seem to totally escape the attention of conservationists and now gone.
