Brynmawr is a quiet little town on the edge of the valley roads. These photos bring back memories of all the hills I climbed, picnics on the mountain, paddling in the pond across from our house in Warwick Road. Snow 6ft deep in Winter. I ...Read more

Caption For Laindon, King Edward Road C1960

The grid-like pattern of the streets west of Laindon High Road preserves the layout of some of the early plotland estates.

Caption For Birkenhead, Woodchurch Road C1955

The road leading off to the left is Moss Road, which is now blocked off to form a cul-de-sac, and the bollards and ornate lantern (centre) have gone.

Caption For Alton, Butts Road And High Street 1907

The buildings in the foreground, including the Duke's Head on the right, are in Butts Road, while Olsen's Stores (left) and those nearer the town are in the High Street.

Caption For Stoneleigh, Birmingham Road C1960

Today, as might be expected from somewhere which boasts both a Birmingham Road and a Coventry Road, it is largely a commuter village.

Caption For Chelmsford, New Street 1920

The new thoroughfare swept in a wide arc from the old Stump Cross, and along Van Diemen's Road, to join Baddow Road at a new roundabout by the Army & Navy pub.

Caption For Romiley, Compstall Road C1955

Even at this time Compstall Road, along with Stockport Road, had long been at the commercial heart of the town.

Caption For Burton Joyce, Meadow Lane C1965

Re-crossing the Trent at Gunthorpe, the route turns back towards Nottingham along the busy A612 to Burton Joyce, where the river sweeps close to the road.

Caption For Charmouth, 1922

The road leads downwards and eastwards from opposite the Charmouth House Hotel (right), to Hardown Hill and Stonebarrow Hill (centre), where it climbs through Morecombeland.

Caption For Cricklade, High Street C1950

This small Wiltshire market town has a long, roughly north-south High Street, seen here looking north from the junction with Bath Road.

Caption For Newent, Broad Street C1965

On the right, the imposing 18th-century brick frontage of Lloyd's Bank, with its stone pediment and columned entrance, faces the small shops across the road.

Caption For Stebbing, High Street C1960

Stebbing, strung out along a mile-long road, has a fine collection of old buildings: the house with the leaning frontage is late 15th-century, the other cottages slightly later.

Caption For Sutton, Wesleyan Chapel 1894

The chapel was built in 1884 on the south side of Carshalton Road, but has since been demolished.

Caption For Grangetown, Broadway C1955

How amazing to see such a lack of road traffic by comparison with today! The Broadway is in practice a section of the main trunk road between Middlesbrough and Redcar.

Caption For East Meon, The Village 2004

This view of the Cross is taken from the road going to West Meon. In fifty years this road has seen traffic increase tenfold (making the taking of this photograph somewhat hazardous).

Caption For Fleet, Elvetham Road 1904

The lack of other vehicles meant that it probably didn't matter too much, but the driver of the horse and trap is apparently unaware of the 'keep left' rule of the road.

Caption For Old Swinford, Hagley Road C1955

The photographer was standing towards the northern end of Hagley Road, looking towards Stourbridge. The view is greatly changed today, with the cottages on the left barely recognisable.

Caption For Romford, High Street 1910

It is remarkable that until the Eastern Avenue arterial road was built in the 1920s, the main trunk road from London to the port of Harwich and East Anglia passed through the narrow confines

Caption For Stourbridge, High Street And Public Library C1950

This is another view that has now changed considerably because of the ring road, which could be said to slash its way through here.

Caption For Woking, Chobham Road 1902

A final view of Woking and its parades of shops, this time on the Chobham Road. There seem few customers out and about, and the only traffic on the road is to be seen in the far distance.

Caption For Ibstock, Station Road C1965

The back of the Crown Inn can just be seen in the centre, where Station Road becomes Hinckley Road, curving south past the parish church, and on to Nailstone and Market Bosworth.

Caption For Long Stratton, The Village C1965

The name means simply 'long street', and the village is spread along the main road, originally the Roman road running from London to Caistor St Edmund, the Roman town just south of Norwich.

Caption For Loughborough, Cattle Market 1949

TODAY THE RUSHES seems just a busy stretch of road linking the town centre to the main road to Derby.

Caption For Henley On Thames, Reading Road And Duke Street C1955

This shows the view looking along Reading Road, past the current Post Office and the Shell petrol pump, to the junction with Friday Street and into Duke Street as it heads towards the Market Place.

Caption For Coniston, The Fells 1912

A horse and cart wends its way up a gated minor road through the Coniston Fells.
