In a very English town - John Comino-James

High Street, Buttermarket, Cornmarket, Pump Lane, North Street, Park Street: all have a deceptive familiarity to the English ear that they could be found in any English town. They suggest continuity and tradition. Comino-Jones has photographed the streets, shops and shopkeepers in Thame, a historic market town 45 miles north of London. The candid images, text and portraits are contained in a sequence whilst the accompanying interviews reveal the pride and the challenges that small enterprises experience. Comino-Jones celebrates the character and history of the market town.
