17th Century Murder Replayed At Church Norton.
The more I think back on this incident, the more bizzare and terryfying it seems. In 2001, around Oct/Nov, myself and a friend drove to the car park at Church Norton church at about 11:00pm. We were at ...Read more

In 1871 my relatives were inn keepers of the cross keys pub. Names were Dorothy Hadfield and Abraham Barber. This I have just found out on my family history. They were in the pub in 1861 also and I think before that. I dont know if this is ...Read more

Bangor Bus Station
For a young bus enthusiast in the 1960s, the bus station on Garth Road was the gateway to Anglesey and many of the country routes behind Bangor. Such exciting places as Gerlan, Bethesda, Tregarth and Rhiwlas could be ...Read more

Baptism And A Marriage
I was baptised in the Parish Church just beyond the trees on the left. My sister-in-law lived in the cottage on the far right - almost next to the Vicarage garden. In the late 40's and 50's I used to walk to Church Street from ...Read more

The Cross Keys pub stands behind the parked vehicles. Today the pub has been converted into cottages, but the name survives, because they are called Cross Keys Mews.
The Cross Keys Hotel was known as the Cross Keys and Unicorn from 1768. The present building is later; it perhaps dates from 1904, when the name was shortened.
When considerably enlarged, this photograph shows a pub sign on the right depicting two crossed keys - the Keys.
On the left is the facade of the 16th-century Cross Keys pub, one of Pangbourne's oldest buildings. Near it is Church Cottage, where Kenneth Grahame lived in the 1920s.
To the right is the Cross Keys Hotel, but the most famous of all is Ye Old White Harte Inn, where the Governor and other leading citizens of Hull took the decision not to let King Charles I enter the city

Given a decade of fresh ideas (see L211008 on the previous pages), the area around Leighton Buzzard's 15th-century Market Cross is once again a focal point and meeting place.
The river has always been a key focal point here, and is noted for its Pulborough eel. The Roman Stane Street crossed the Arun at this point and was strongly defended during the Occupation.
The Cross Keys Hotel (left) overlooked the market up to the 1980s, when major development was undertaken; whilst the facade has been retained, the hotel is now a shopping mall.
The Cross Keys (left) dates from the 17th century, though it replaced an earlier structure. Until the 19th century, there was a brewery here too.
This photograph looks southwards along South Street from the Cross Keys (left) next to butcher Arthur Lewis and cycle agent Charles Frederick Fooks. The cart belonging to the former is moving off.
The villa, demolished in August 1973, had been home to key figures in the community.

The climax of the High Street is the 1892 Cross Keys pub building in the centre of the photograph. To the right is the tall White Hart, completed in 1902.
The Barnsley Brewery is once again thriving, thanks to the resurgence of real ale, but the Cross Keys is now a John Smith's pub.
A popular stop-off for cyclists and walkers from the local towns long ago, this small settlement included the well known Cross Keys Inn, now derelict - as are most of the other buildings we see here.
Over to the right, the Cross Keys had been superseded by the Regent Theatre. Chelmsford was considered something of a theatre-loving town at this time.
The Cross Keys remains, but the two houses in the distance on either side of the High Street junction are now estate agents.

Farmers Wesley Haskell and George Hatchard lived at Mannington, and David Cutler was the innkeeper at the Cross Keys, Lower Mannington, beside Holt Heath.
Built in 1856, the church has the crossed keys of St Peter below the east window. Behind the church are the hospital of 1826 and the birthplace of the Victorian novelist Ouida (1839-1907).
Street cleaners stand back from their wheelbarrows and a drayman delivers to the Ship Inn (right), with the Cross Keys and a striped barber`s pole being glimpsed behind.
