More about this scene

This scene is hardly recognisable today. The wall on the right was knocked down and a garage built. This disappeared in 1997, replaced by a pretty park. The Post Office has gone, and the Westward Ho! based Buckleigh Laundry is now called Buckleigh Linen Service. The furthest building, The New Inn, still serves splendid meals. The two motor bikes look as though they belong to campers; perhaps they are calling for liquid refreshment in those pre-breathalyser days.
