Caravan Rally

My parents kept our caravan at Overstone - on the far side near the lake. One year, 1953 I think, the National Caravan Rally came to Overstone and the field filled up with hundreds of caravans. I think this photo is the milk queue!

Forge Cottage (Blacksmith's Cottage)

My family and I lived in Forge Cottage (known to us as the Blacksmith's Cottage) from about 1962 to 1964, whereafter we emigrated to Canada. I have fond memories of the cottage and its low ceilings, the Aga ...Read more

A memory of Easthampstead in 1963 by Susan Cann

Post Office And School

The first building on the left was the old Post Office (owned by Mees). Just to the front of this is a small footpath that leads to my Mum-in-Law's (Janet Halls nee Smith) old school. It was also the village hall. It still has the green tin roof..... noisy when it rains!!!!!

Old Blokes In White Coats!

Sometimes on the way to the Green we would watch the men walking up and down the Bowling Green. They really took things seriously! The Green was mown to precision and I'm sure the bloke that cut it measured the length of ...Read more

A memory of Camberwell in 1967 by Denise Masters

School Maternity Home School

During WW2 the pupils were evacuated and the school turned into a temporary Maternity Home. The Doctor attending the home was only part-time, but always on call. The Doctor lived a few houses away and at night time he ...Read more

Dads First Cattle

My dad had a yard here before the houses were built back in the 40s. He bought his first cows and used to milk them in a barn there. I can remember as a small child being in the barn with mum and dad when an aeroplane crashed ...Read more

A Traditional English Pub!

The Queen's Head is little changed - maybe a horse trough on the pavement but the front of the building is pure English village pub! It was the starting point for many a village pub crawl and some fun times pushing ...Read more

Caption For Windsor, The Castle, Henry Viii Gate 1914

By the 16th century, the main gateway was in such a poor state of repair that Henry VIII replaced it with the one that bears his name.

Caption For York, Shambles 1893

Between King's Square and Pavement, the Shambles were once known as the Fleshammels, or butchers' street; in this picture several of the late 13th- to early 14th-century shops were still fulfilling that

Caption For St Blazey, Fore Street C1965

One of the films showing is 'The Longest Day', which dates this scene to the early 1960s. The cinema has since been converted to flats.

Caption For Sandhurst, Village 1939

Cars have replaced horses, and just out of shot, on the right, would be the Rose and Crown public house. Today, the Post Office, the first building on the right, is a bathroom showroom.

Caption For Andover, Rooksbury Mill 1906

Further down-river, Rooksbury Mill stands on the edge of town as the only other mill still existing. In 2001 the Council bought Rooksbury Mill and its use as a fisherman's club may change.

Caption For Llanrhian, Traethllyfn Beach C1960

Note the people on the beach and the complete absence of beach towels, windbreaks and other paraphernalia.

Caption For Winchester, St Giles Hill 1899

St Giles Hill is the high ground to the east of the old city walls. A fine view over the city can be had by crossing the River Itchen and ascending to its summit.

Caption For Winchester, City Bridge 1906

Broadway and its continuation, the High Street, almost certainly follow the line of an ancient trackway that crossed the River Itchen during the Iron Age.

Caption For Honiton, View From Honiton Hill C1955

The high ridges surrounding the upper reaches of the River Otter offer wonderful views across the East Devon countryside.

Caption For Stourport On Severn, River Severn C1965

The Tontine, overlooking the canal basin, offers traditional draught beers and food, but in 1788 it was owned by the Canal Company; the houses on each side of the original inn were used by hop merchants

Caption For Ilkley, Marlborough House 1900

One of Ilkley's many smaller hydros, the Marlborough House on Clifton Road opened in 1878. It survived almost a century before being replaced by modern town houses in Marlborough Square.

Caption For Haverfordwest, Salutation Square C1960

Another view of Salutation Square before its redevelopment and transformation into a busy road junction. The board on the 'Keep Left' sign refers to a Royal Army Ordnance Corps exercise.

Caption For Dublin, College Green 1897

A view looking east along the green to Trinity College, with the Bank of Ireland on the left. This bustling scene shows a horse-tram snaking over the cobbled street.

Caption For Giant's Causeway, The Wishing Arch C1897

The character of Antrim's coast is nowhere better expressed than where it is possible to see the black basalt overlying the white chalk rocks, as here at the Wishing Arch.

Caption For Seaton, White Cliff From Beach 1898

The strange colours, white and red, of the cliffs around Seaton give a striking effect when the sun falls upon them. They are notoriously crumbly, and rock falls are common.

Caption For Little Haven, 1898

Strawberry Hill, above the village, was the site of an Iron Age fort. A boat is being beached to the right beyond the slipway and other boats in the centre.

Caption For Dolwyddelan, The Bridge And Lledr C1940

The photographer must have felt far from the rumblings of war, and even more so with subjects as beautiful as this fine old stone bridge that spans the Lledr River.

Caption For Stratford Upon Avon, Harvard House 1922

This house was built in 1595-96 by Thomas Rogers, whose grandson, John Harvard, settled in America, and died there in 1638, bequeathing money towards the establishment of Harvard College.

Caption For Hatfield Peverel, Post Office C1965

This view looks eastwards along the former Roman road to Colchester, which forms the main street of this village. The church, whose spire can be seen, is the Methodist church.

Caption For Norwich, Cow Tower And River Wensum 1896

The Cow Tower, with barges moored nearby, looks out from the edge of Cowholme, now in the riverside walk park, to the late 19th-century city expansion beyond the Wensum.

Caption For Newby Bridge, The Swan Hotel 1888

Much of the large area included in the centre is woodland. Here the ‘camp’ title is well justified by the neatly erected tents, with two people folding ground sheets (left).

Caption For Ipswich, River Orwell And Ss Norfolk 1904

In the background are the masts of cargo ships.

Caption For Ipswich, Hog Island 1921

Once a popular riverside haunt for the locals, Hog Island is now known as Piper's Vale, and is more remarkable today as the north-eastern end of the Orwell Bridge.

Ref. B580006
Caption For Brasted, C1955

Brasted stands on the river?Darent, four miles west of Sevenoaks. Its broad, spacious street is fringed with brick and weatherboarded cottages in the Wealden style.
