Bad planning?

I went off to the Museum this morning, camera in hand, to see the Leonardo exhibition which is touring the country in bits and then coming together in London later in the year. No pics allowed. 
So I went to the RWA ( Royal West of England Academy) to see a contemporary art exhibition. No pics allowed. 
So I came outside and took this picture of a crescent of houses with forecourt. Unfortunately someone has put some shops on the forecourt, a road , some traffic lights, bike rack and.....

Yes, I know. Moan, moan, moan.....Will try harder!
