More about this scene
We are now in the centre of Eastleigh; in fact, we are looking from the station along Leigh Road, originally a farm track but steadily improved and extended as the town grew. All the main banks are situated here. The National Provincial (left) has become NatWest; the Midland is next door, now HSBC; and the tall building on the right was originally the Wilts and Dorset Bank, which became Lloyds in 1914. The building has been completely rebuilt. The smaller Barclays Bank, seen here on the right, is still next to Lloyds, but has gone round the comer out of sight.
