Chippenham, New Road c.1960
Photo ref:

More about this scene
These views, with only a few years between them, illustrate the widening of the road with the construction of the new bridge. A section of the old stone balustrade can be seen on the side of Thomas Cook & Son in C294109. Very little else has changed, except that Redwood Brothers, who sold men's and boys' clothing, has left; the building has been modernised, with the removal of a first floor oriel window. The building was occupied by Halfords, and is now the Oxfam shop. The two low buildings next to Redwoods have had a wide range of uses, from nurseries to restaurants.
