This view of Station Road looks south-west past the junction to Havelock Street, with the imposing clock tower of the 1903 Co-op store.
The South Parade pier is the more traditional of Southsea's two piers. It was opened in 1879 by Princess Saxe-Weimar, and it was extensively rebuilt in the Edwardian era after a fire in 1904.
Brixham is located at the south end of Tor Bay. Its natural harbour, sheltered by the limestone cliffs, made it ideal for settlement.
Just five miles south of Huddersfield on the road to Wakefield, Kirkburton in the 19th century was just as polluted by smoke as its near neighbours.
This was once an important stopping place on the main road from Taunton to the north Devon area; now, a new road further south has removed much of the traffic from this place.
The first structure was a toll bridge; today the river is spanned by various busy roads and a motorway - a far cry from the days centuries ago when this river and many others like it on the south coast
Excavations undertaken in 1892-93 revealed a medieval priory on the east and south side of the parish church.
This view looks north along South Gate past the extraordinarily grandiose statue in its towering medieval-style spired canopy to a 19th-century MP, Henry Handley, which dates from 1850.
The High Street is part of the old London to Brighton route through Henfield, which lies to the east of the River Adur on a belt of Wealden clay behind the South Downs.
Two of the girls have come down from the bridge and are inspecting the ruined south-west towers.
The church has a Norman nave and chancel, with Norman mouldings to the south door and chancel arch. The porch is Tudor.
The south porch dates from 1466. The tower has stone figures at the corners instead of pinnacles. The whole church was restored in 1872. The vicar in 1906 was the Rev John Brown.

Beckbury, just a mile or so to the south, can certainly be described as a village, and it still retains its pub, the Seven Stars.

At the south end of the village is Townend, a typical Lakeland statesman's house, now in the care of the National Trust.
Eamont Bridge, just south of Penrith on the A6, takes its name from this splendid three-arched bridge across the River Eamont.
In this view we look past the Horse and Jockey pub towards the south of the village; the church is beyond the high tree on the left.
Since 1955 a new residential block has been built in the background of the picture, whilst a new library to the south of the chapel has appeared.

Carfax stands at the crossing point where the original north to south and east to west routes ran through Oxford.
By 1955 a new station had been built on the corner of Brooke Road and South Street. In recent years this has been considerably modernised.
