The photographer almost had his feet in Sussex while taking this picture, so close was he to the county border.
The village green, the King's Head and the parish church lie at the heart of present-day Lanchester.
At the northern end of the Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal, an unusual pleasure boat conversion heads towards Wolverhampton. The narrow section is a solid aqueduct over the River Trent.
The dock was closed in 1900, and was filled in to give us George's Parade (the Pier Head and the three large and famous waterfront buildings that we have today).
We are looking westwards to the snout of Goggin's Barrow (right), Black Head (centre), and Redcliff Point (left) above Weymouth Bay.
The turn of the century Bull's Head pub is now in use as the Syston District Social Club; as is so common in the village, over half the buildings in the middle distance have gone to make way for unattractive
From Southwell the tour heads north-east back to the River Trent north of Newark and on to Sutton-on-Trent.
Beyond the Kings Head pub on the left, the white-painted shop has become a gift shop and café, and the large bay window to its far end is now demolished.
This view looks out of the market place into Bow Street, which leads down to the river.
Just beyond the west tip of Nag's Head Island is the Malthouse (creeper-clad) and Fairlawn Wharf to the right, now housing and formerly warehouses and barns.
The door hood has also been removed - presumably it was hit too often by motor coaches heading for the main caves and the Gorge. The buildings on the right have long gone.
A Morris Minor heads along Boar Lane towards the City Square. Introduced in 1948 the Minor has since become a classic car enjoying a cult following.
As we head north-west, we should find Chobham village to be a relief after the rather drear urban townscape of Woking; but the traffic levels in Chobham prevent a true village atmosphere prevailing
The track on the right descends from the Dorchester Road, near the junction with Lee Lane, and that to the left heads for St Andrew's Well.
The long, low 17th-century house, right, has fine stone-mullioned and drip- headed windows.
The route now heads eastwards to Winchelsea, which is a mile inland and might be considered an impostor in this chapter, rather like Rye.

Indeed, Halifax had been granted its own laws for dealing with people convicted of stealing cloth.
The Fraternity of the Holy Cross built the two bridges, the causeway across Nag's Head Island, and then the long causeway that runs south for over a thousand yards across the flood plain to Culham
From Crowborough the route heads back nearer to Hailsham's environs and to the village of East Hoathly, a village now much more peaceful than a few years ago.
This wonderful nostalgic photograph shows steam engine 'black 5', the work-horse of the LMS region, heading south with non-corridor stock on a local, probably to Bamber Bridge and on to Blackburn.
We are in a valley of the Downs near Beachy Head. The Tiger Inn is a fine building that was a barracks during the Napoleonic wars.
Her body was then taken to the earlier General Infirmary at Leeds where it was exhibited at a charge of 3d a head. Over 2,500 people paid to see her body.
An empty pair of boats (the one in front is the 'Clio') head towards Manchester, probably to collect coal. It is unusual that the butty has no steerer, although the tiller is in place.
