This view has changed a lot since 1950 due to the increase in traffic. The Old Red Lion on the right survives but is renamed The Monk and Minstrel.
This is an oasis between industrial Syston and unlovely Sileby, where, apart from an increase in traffic, the scene has changed little.
East of Chiddingfold the lanes wind to Alfold, which lies close to the Sussex border.
The High Street runs from the parish church, with its white-painted weatherboarded tower, to the Guildford road in the distance.
It is still not unusual to see a scene such as this in East Budleigh, for the farms in the vicinity are very active.
Truly one of the finest small museums in Hertfordshire, Ashwell Village Museum was founded in November 1930 and is based on the collection of Albert Sheldrick and John Bray, made when they were schoolboys
This is a charming photograph of the area outside the churchyard entrance. Many refer to this village as the most perfect in Lancashire, with its village green next to the church, and old inn.
The village used to be called Auldkirk, because the people of Greenock worshipped here until they built their own church at the end of the 16th century.
Situated on the south-west side of the village, the church was heavily restored by Frederick Peck of Maidstone in 1872.
Ribbon development of local stone houses under thatched and slated roofs, while not overheating the blood, do present a well-ordered scene; their dates range from the pre-17th century to modern, close
We are looking south-eastwards from the Yetminster road towards the mediaeval Hamstone cross in a triangle of cobbles (centre), with roads at the junction signed to Sherborne (left) and Chetnole (right
We are on the slope of the Downs between Eastbourne and Polegate. A nearby vantage point at Combe hill is 638 feet high.
The parish church of St Martin is described as 'Anglo-Saxon origins, c1200, C13, C15, restored 1850' (Department of Heritage List). The former school, now the village hall, is dated 1846.
West Bradford gets its name from being west of the broad, shallow ford of the River Ribble.
The inn was built in 1927 using traditional materials, especially local flint; its design makes it look much older then it really is.

Tintagel is a 'must' on every tourist's itinerary, and the main street is full of hotels, guest houses and souvenir shops, many developed since writers such as Tennyson romanticised the legend of King
The old medieval stone bridge, with one central and two pointed side arches, carries Yarmouth-bound traffic over the Thurne. Its painted warning 'Caution, proceed slowly' must not be ignored.
Before the dawn of the railway era, Woodford Halse was a sleepy community untouched by time.
Called Earls Barton because of its connections with the earls of Northampton, it is mainly noted for its powerful Anglo-Saxon church tower, seen here dominating the view.
Strete stands on the winding lanes which form the highway between Dartmouth and the villages clustered around the great freshwater lake of Slapton Ley.
The old medieval stone bridge, with one central and two pointed side arches, carries Yarmouth-bound traffic over the Thurne. Its painted warning 'Caution, proceed slowly' must not be ignored.
