Eastleigh, Market Street c.1960

More about this scene
This is a slightly later view than E167001. Baker's is still on the comer. On the opposite comer is Smith Bradbeer & Co Ltd, a well-supported local general clothing and furniture store. Note that one of the cinemas, the Picture House, has given way to Fine Fare (centre right). A particular feature of these early days was the sun-blinds to be seen out over the footway in the centre of the picture. Their purpose was to shield the copious provisions in shop windows.
