Building Shopping City - a story in pictures

Shopping City.
Most of the images are very much the record of a building company. But, some show a little local life and hint at how locals might have been reacting to the development.
Google search results suggest that Shopping City was built between 1976 and 1981. However, as you ll see below in Image 2 dated October 1976, the red brick seventies development to the east of the High Road looks to be complete to as far north as where the bridge across the road was to be built. There is then a gap, I assume for the bridge, before the new buildings continue on the far left of the photo.
