More about this scene
Addlestone grew up in the mid 19th century with the arrival of the railway, when a few villas and many more terraces and pairs of artisan houses were built. The town was greatly augmented by 20th-century suburban housing, but architecturally it is the poor relation of Weybridge and Chertsey. Station Road, behind the photographer, is the main shopping street, and now has two major supermarkets. The station is to the left of the footbridge, which remains today; but the level crossing gates have been replaced by automatic barriers, and the villa went for blocks of flats.
