More about this scene

Before World War II, a by-pass was planned for Cheltenham. Bradley Road, which we see here, was the only section completed before local objections and the outbreak of hostilities shelved the plan indefinitely. Until the 1960s, Charlton Kings railway station stood half a mile up the hill from this spot - its site is now an industrial park. Another change is The New Inn, since renamed The Little Owl after a Gold Cup winning racehorse.
