Not far away is this Post Office Telegraphs cover, there's quite a few of these. No idea if they're unusual.

There are the burnt and peeling remains of a painted lintel in Kirkgate, over the former passageway which led to Wallace Arnold's coach station. It reads "ROXBY CAFE" and by Jove you got lovely dinners in there, waitress served by two splendid ladies and prepared in the tiniest litchen you can imagine. Unfortunately this has been painted over. It's still on street view so if anybody more competent than me knows how can they grab the picture and paste it here please do so.
