Until mid-Victorian times, this part of the road, known now as Greenhill, had been called New Well Hill. Here, we are looking towards the Green at the turn of the century.
Greyfriars Green is dominated by the spire of Christchurch (c1350), all that remains of a monastery established in 1234 and demolished in 1539.
Kelvedon Hatch is a popular commuter village in the Green Belt north-west of Brentwood. It is now well-known for its formerly 'secret' government nuclear bunker.
The Green Man is a common pub name (and church carving), deriving from an ancient fertility figure, though his exact significance is uncertain.
Amongst the facilities provided by the Cliftons was the old lifeboat house, built largely from cobbles and overlooking the promenade wall.
St Margaret's stands on high ground at the southern end of the present village near the green at Newgate.
The War Memorial 1921. East Dean's simple war memorial fits well on the green of this flint-built village.
A pony and trap stand on the main road which passes by the foot of the green on the left, around which are the tile-hung yeomens' cottages and the village pub.
The centre of the village, with its attractive houses round the green, is marked by a market cross reminding us that Henry III had granted a license to Thomas de Greystoke for a weekly market and fair
Here on the Green those visitors who did not wish to dabble on the sands with Punch and Judy, minstrels and organs could enjoy the relative peace of this area to read, write a postcard or
On a sunny weekend day the customers of The Tiger Inn, out of view to the right and very popular with walkers, spill onto the green and bring it vigorously to life.
We are looking west towards the Green Bridge, with the castle rock more visible here. The young woman on the right needs her parasol, because Castle Walk is a south-facing sun trap.
The character of the village has changed greatly in recent years as commuters have discovered it.
Richmond, the 'capital' of Swaledale, has been described as one of the most perfect market towns in England.
Over the last half century the Green has altered very little.

Bilsborrow lies between Lancaster and Preston on the traffic-laden A6 road. The White Bull inn dates from the 18th century, and still believes in a roaring coal or log fire in winter.

The village lies south of Redditch, with Studley and Astwood Bank encroaching from east and west.
As a resort Alnmouth was noted for its excellent golf links, said to be one of the oldest in England.
