More about this scene

Go back into town and cross the Pulteney Bridge with its small shops into Argyle Street. At its junction with Laura Place you can look along Great Pulteney Street towards the Holburne Museum, built as the Sydney House hotel in 1796 to serve the Sydney Gardens beyond, a large hexagonal public park now bisected by the railway.

Does anyone know when the trees were felled? I have found a slightly later photo around the turn of the century and this has the trees still. Today there are none, although I think those on Laura Place are still there. If anyone knows about this, I'd love to hear from you: moretrees@live.co.uk
