Slow work to finish one corner of the layout: the Railway Hotel and George's Snack Bar on Hibel Road. Still to add bus stops (the bus to Congleton is on the wrong side - but if it faced the other way, you couldn't read the destination!), but looks pleasingly like the reference photos. Even managed to identify the brewery logo in the hotel (Ind Coope).
The hotel is in half-relief against what will be the backdrop, which is why the left half is missing - will be painted in later.
