This series of shops in the main street of Leeton are the result of a 1930s makeover of an earlier building. You can see the dark brick wall of the 1918 building down the lane running alongside the nearest shop, Dee's.
A high parapet has been added decorated with a stepped deco element in the centre and a series of three speedlines running the length of the building, turning the corner and following the curve at the end.Reference:
