More about this scene
The photographer has moved slightly further back down the road to take in the whole of the Market Stores, no doubt for a picture postcard of the time. Postcards with scenes such as this were popular purchases until relatively recently.

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our website to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was, prompted by the photographs in our archive. Here are some from Pett Level
Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
From 1961 through to 1964 I would (with friends) come down to Pett Level initially camping but then in a disused beach hut. We would spend at least three hours a day drinking coffee and soft drinks in this café. It was owned by a local family and staffed by two girls, one the daughter of the family.
Initially we would travel down from London on a coach or train but latterly on motorcycles. In the evening we would drink in the Old Beach Club.
