North End
North End has little to no industry, it was mainly the original shopping centre
for Portsea. Now a reminder of what was once a great place to get all your
supplies from. A few of the original themed shop's are still available.
Remember walking in to a shop and buying your coffee Beans?
Collecting Coke (No not the drink) from the street's and selling it?
Or simply getting a bag of ginger spice for your bread mix?
Nowadays you buy it all from Tesco or Safeway's in jar's etc. OK so it
hasn't been at sea for 3 month's but just how old is it? today no one knows!

These pictures are no more than 60 years old, look at the area
now, it take's longer to drive from one end to the other than you could walk it
in.
