View across street towards the Honeysett Oil Co. Filling Station, which is a two-story brick building. A woman and two children are on the stoop of a house behind the gas station. Further down the street, which curves towards the right, is an ice cream shop, and the Hotel Orford. More businesses are on the left side of the street in the background.
