More about this scene

Behind the tree on the left is the church of St George, built during the reign of Queen Victoria. It is also worth noting that all the cars seen here in Fountain Street - an Austin A40, a P4 Rover, a Morris 1000 Traveller, an Austin 1100, two Minis and a Ford Anglia approaching - are British-built. What a rare sight that would be today.

Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

I spent most of my childhood in Newmarket, playing in the wood and on Bunting Hill shown in the photo with the old Quarry. Every year the hill would be set fire, the fire being lit at the top to burn slowly down, this was to encourage new grass to grow to feed goats that grazed there in the summer months.
