Britain: Our ugly towns

I don't suppose Ipswich is worse than anywhere else but this scene seems to sum up Britain much of the time with it's ugly faceless concrete architecture, property always up for sale or development, traffic going nowhere and of course Rain. Still fortunately even today Ipswich still has it's smart green and cream painted buses even if most of the East Lancs bodied buses were also far from beautiful like No.106, probably it a Dennis and was seen when still fairly new in the mid-Eighties.
