In  the  last  decade  the  high  street  has  changed  dramatically.  It  used  to  be  independently  run  family  business  now  it’s  more  chain  supermarkets.    Family  run  business  are  now  dying  trades,  they  are  being  phased  out.    Not  many  people  in  this  day  an  age  can  afford  to  shop  at  what’s  left  of  the  family  run  business  purely  because  of  the  cheaper  produce  on  the  market.  However  some  people  have  gone  back  to  shopping  at  the  butchers  due  to  the  recent  meat  scandal.      Within  the  images  in  this  book  Laura  has  focused  on  two  trades  the  Butchers,  and  the  pub.  She  has  studied  each  of  the  business  in  depth  and  looked  into  the  history  of  each.  The  butchers  is  a  family  run  business,  they  have  had  for  a  number  of  years.  It’s  situated  within  the  center  of  Horsforth  and  has  a  fair  deal  of  custom,  more  so  now  than  before  mainly  due  to  the  meat  scandal  as  previously  mentioned.  The  pub  is  also  a  family  run  business  however  they  have  not  been  the  landlords  for  long,  when  they  first  became  landlord  of  the  pub  they  seemed  to  be  doing  well,  however  this  changed.  They  don’t  have  a  much  custom,  as  they’d  like.  The  pub  is  situated  within  Yeadon  just  of  the  high  street,  so  naturally  you’d  think  they  would  have  plenty  of  customers  sadly  this  isn’t  the  case  as  previously  mentioned.      Despite  the  meat  scandal  and  where  each  of  the  business  are  situated.  They  aren’t  doing  as  well  as  they’d  like.  Laura  thinks  the  owners  of  each  of  the  businesses  are  feeling  the  fact  that  the  supermarkets  are  now  the  main  source  of  produce  for  many  people.  It  looks  as  though  in  a  few  years  the  small  independently  run  businesses  will  no  longer  be  apart  of  our  high  street.
