This view shows a virtually-deserted High Street in the undistinguished former colliery town of Normanton, three miles north of Wakefield in South Yorkshire.
To the north-west of Ringwood is Somerley House, sometime residence of Lord Normanton.
It was the place where estate business was conducted for Lord Ancaster until the Normanton Park estate was sold in 1926.
Many houses carry the shield of the Ancaster family, for this was an estate village from the 1760s until 1925, when the Normanton Park Estate of the Earl of Ancaster was sold and dispersed.
Most of the structure in the picture has gone, but the present Normanton Junior School is still looked over by the old bell tower.
In the grounds is a stone statue of a First World War soldier, given by the Normanton Central Liberal Club - it can be seen from the road.
Beyond The Strait, Steep Hill commences with The Jew's House, a Norman stone house of the 1170s, before climbing more steeply up towards the cathedral and castle on the top of the hill.
Some reused Norman stones survive in what appears to be a small Easter Sepulchre.
The splendid Norman tower of the cathedral rises above the roofs of the county town, forming an important part of the city's skyline.
But the Norman tower was unaffected.
The Norman tower of St Michael's parish church watches over the busy Market Place of Malton, which is filled with cars in this photograph.
Demolished in 1939, this house is thought to be the third dwelling on the site – the first was possibly a Norman tower.
The church, whose Norman tower stands on the north side of the building, has an eastern apse constructed through it, indicating that it was used as a separate chapel.
The front would have been twice as high with turrets on the end towers, and with a massive central tower and spire, probably three times the height of the Norman Tower.
Some reused Norman stones survive in what appears to be a small Easter Sepulchre.
