Pontypool Town Centre
I lived in Upper Bridge Street and remember a few of the shops in town, I think! On the corner of Upper Bridge Street and the Bell Pitch was Franketti's fish shop with an awesome Art Nouveau till and free chips if you took ...Read more

Hi Peter, I remember the Thompkins was it the baker or was that the Cheneys? Joe Smith was the newsagent who used to treat the kids to a summer outing by train every summer. We used to get a new florin and a bag ...Read more

Town Hall Roundabout
Living in Watford from the early 1950's, I well remember the Town Hall roundabout before they moved it. Can't recollect whether it was nearer or further away. I can recollect, not far from a pub called the OBH, or almost opposite ...Read more

The Highway 1957
This is a photo full of memories for me, too. We lived in Tatling End (Brokengate Lane) from 1941 to 1954, so Gerrards Cross was more than familiar to me! In the photo on the right, you can see the garage/petrol station where ...Read more

By 1934, more than two thousand houses had been built within half a mile of Stoneleigh Station, and in March of that year Hanbury & Buxton successfully applied for a provisional licence to build and operate
Just below the mill is the railway station of 1847, and to the left is the Three Rise canal lock. The famous Five Rise lock is just out of the picture on the left.
The street lighting by the chemist was a new innovation, only introduced in 1900 after the generating station opened in Commercial Road.
Presumably, however, the Star was able to benefit from the railways too, with Foregate Street Station being just across the road.
The building on the extreme right is the fire station. In 1961 the fire service moved to purpose- built premises near Commercial Square, and this building was demolished in 1981.
The buildings stand beneath the Birkenhead Road where it spans the railway line near Meols Station.
Hermitage Road was opened in 1875 to give the people of Hitchin better access to the railway station. The land was given by Frederick Seebohm, who owned the Hermitage Estate.
This view looks north-east along Chertsey Road (now one-way and traffic-calmed) away from the station, which fuelled the commuter-based growth of the town.
By 1907 the building in the photograph, which resembles a country railway station, had on average 108 pupils.
In March 1895, the canal drained overnight owing to subsidence, and washed away the surface of Station Road, Hest Bank.
The Cock Hotel across the traffic lights has the police station and the Congregational Church beyond, while on the adjacent corner William Pile's shop has a window display of books, calendars and cards
just outside the Inner Ring Road on the north side of the city, St Margaret's, one of Leicestershire's fin- est mainly 15th-century churches, can hardly be said to be enhanced by its factory and bus station
The brewery chimney came down in 1959, and the remaining building became the site of the bus station. On the outskirts of the town was the Naval Training Ship HMS 'Cabot'.
A little further away, and to the left, the next chimney may be at either the Burnley Gas Works or the town's Electricity Station. The latter had only just opened when this picture was taken.
When this photograph was taken there was a filling station opposite the New Inn. Today it is a car showroom.
The entrance to the railway station can just be deciphered in the far distance, with the public conveniences in front, standing at the junction of Bow Street and Fountain Street.
The variety of shops in Morden was to alter after the underground railway station opened in 1926 and large-scale retail development began.
This 17th-century inn, apparently referred to in the Sherlock Holmes adventure The Speckled Band, stands by the junction of Stoke Road and Station Road.
The Stonecot Garage has been rebuilt since the time of this picture and is now a Shell petrol station.
His horse-drawn vehicles provided a service to and from Winchfield Station, and he also delivered parcels.
Freshfield was established as the name for the railway station located between Formby and Ainsdale: it was built on a field owned by Mr Fresh.
The former Patrington RAF wartime station is now a popular caravan and leisure park.
There is a bus stop near the seated man; this was for the regular service from Kingston, a major shopping area, through the centre of Weybridge and onwards to the station.
The railway station opened in the town in 1840, and was the first in the country.
