Sadly this area has gone downhill a lot from back then.
Tesco have gone of course, replaced by an Argos, which has since been replaced by a B&M.
Some of the shops on the right are now pretty tatty.
The horrible brown car park on the right in the distance is still there (with the big white P).
Toy R Us used to be in the large unit on the right below the car park, but it is now an Ikea (not a full shop just a click and collect outlet I think)
There were plans to knock the ugly car park down a few years ago (and the office block next to it was emptied, you can just see it poking out behind the car park) but then the financial crisis hit and nothing happened. The office block is still empty and the car park is still there.
The tall building in the distance is the McLaren building.
