Grendon Underwood, Main Street c.1965

More about this scene

Grendon Underwood is a long, straggling village, with the gaps filled steadily from the 1950s onwards. This view is at the less interesting east end of Main Road, away from the parish church, the moat, the Georgian rectory and Shakespeare Farmhouse, where the bard is reputed to have stayed. Attridge's (right) is now Grendon Stores, and the plot in the foreground now has a 1980s house, a better design than the dull bungalows on the left of about 1960.
