Rebuilt in 1867 by John Loughborough Pearson, the architect of the eastern extension of Wakefield Cathedral, the parish church of St Helen looks down on the town's market place.
A remarkably foreshortened shot, westwards down West Street, with the 1785-built arch (far left) being the north-west corner of the Town Hall.
The KICS (Co-op) drapery building with Jacobean bay windows can be seen down Newland Street.
This photograph was taken about five years after R353020 (pages 62-63) and further down the hill towards the centre of Rockingham.
Down the slope is the sign of the Royal Oak Hotel (above the hand-cart) and the shop window of butchers W and R Fletcher Ltd (two ladies passing), with a painter on a ladder further down the hill.
Findon is on the top of the Downs, just north of Worthing, and was noted for an annual sheep fair. Now horse breeding and training is an important local activity.
Begun in 1772 as a market house, it seems to be a centrepiece for the vast County Down estate. The big house (the castle) was not yet begun, and it came without a long drive.
At the head of the dock can be seen the large No 2 grain elevator; later, this was so much trouble to pull down, that it took nearly three months before it was cleared away.
This is one of the county's most famous beauty spots on the crest of the North Downs, providing breathtaking views across the Weald to the South Downs and Littlehampton, and into Sussex from its height
In medieval times, Snaith was an important trading town - its market charter was granted in 1223.
This shopping complex with its sweeping lines still contains large national shops, and seems unthreatened by the new Ridings Centre, off to the left down Southgate.
Half-way up the street is what appears to be a water-cart on damping-down duty.
As the sun goes down, the only activity at sea comes from fishing boats and one or two yachtsmen.
The River Dargle falls down a precipice of about 300 ft, and this has long been a popular spot with sightseers.
The excessively narrow High Street runs down to the town pier and the passenger ferry across the River Thames to Tilbury.
Tourist souvenirs are for sale down by the harbour. Note the shelter made from an old boat in the front garden.
The south front of St Donat's overlooks the Bristol Channel, and a series of terraced gardens lead down to the shore.
The KICS (Co-op) drapery building with Jacobean bay windows can be seen down Newland Street.
St Peter's Church was 'pulled down' in 1560, and this building was built in 1863.
Washington is on the main London to Worthing Road at the foot of the Downs.
East of this golf course is the Banstead Downs Golf Course, and then east of the railway lies the rest of Banstead Downs, which are undeveloped heath and woodland.
The photograph shows Abbey Row; we are looking down towards the Triangle and the parish of Westport.
To create the large tunnel entrance and the lead-up area, many back-to-back houses had to be pulled down; the town's library also had to be demolished.
The church of St Chad, with two bells hanging in its open belfry, stands a short distance down the lane opposite the Fenwick Arms.
