WE've moved on but not far.Then are the gems of Sickert and Spencer, a brilliant gray self portrait by sickert, which outshines the workmanlike stanley. Couldnt find any henry moorers, they must have hidden them somewhere, the cafe is grand and tiled and serves posh cheese on toast as welsh rarebit.
