More about this scene
At the western end of Westgate, we see very clearly how the trees planted at either side of the road created a very attractive avenue effect when entering the town in this direction. On the extreme right is Kemplah House, a private preparatory school run by Miss MacDonald and originally the residence of Mr Clarke. He was a prominent local land agent; his single-storey office can be seen to the left of Kemplah House, still practising at the time of this photograph as Clarke & Watson. New Road, another Victorian street, runs off to the right; at its junction with Westgate we see Wetherall's furniture store, still serving the needs of the town today. On the left, by the Hillman Imp, we see the opening created by the demolition of cottages in the early 1960s to make way for the town's Register Office and Library.
