Oakleaf Puzzle 5

Here is a charming photograph of our lovely Peel Street Bus Station. Sadly, Acrylic-Biff has been playing with his electronic eraser and has taken five features out of it.

There is an Oakleaf for each missing feature that you can correctly identify. That should keep you all out of mischief for a few minutes.

What you see on the left is the centre bus rank Doug. The old left bus rank is now occupied by the outdoor market which used to be where Wilkinson's now is.

When this puzzle has been solved I will post a panoramic photo so that everyone can see the new "improved" Market Square in all it's glory.

Think there should be a phone mast on top of the old BT building.

From that point, just outside the Regency, The Coppice would be behind the Telephone Exchange, which does have a mast but isn't in the original picture.

There are five things that are missing. Sadly, Christmas Illuminations are not one of them.
