Chester In The 1960s And 1970s

Chester for me, in the 1960s, was, first, the Museum.  It was a full day out.  The C4 or C3 bus from Overpool or the C6 from Rivacre, small pack of sandwiches and some orange squash in my school haversack and I could ...Read more

The Royal Oak

'The Oak' is the only pub and hotel in the village and in the fifties our next door neighbour was the cleaner there. She would cycle to the village from the farm on a heavy green bicycle in a slow and ponderous manner that has stayed ...Read more

Going Home

I returned to Sunnybrow after 30 yrs away - looked up some old friends of which I haven't seen for all those years. I had forgotten that being a small place that the people are still caring and friendly. My friend Davey Harris who has ...Read more

Air Raids

I used to live at Bungay under the flight path of bombers taking off and returning to Flixton Aerodrome. The bombers flew very low over our house on their way to bomb Germany. I can remember my mother counting them out and back. Many coming back were running on only two or three engines.

The memorial is to the founder of the park. The park's layout indicates its ornamental nature.

Caption For Kettering, Gold Street 1922

On the right the Old Post Office Buildings, faced in red terracotta, were a triumphant memorial to the Victorian splendour of the town, and to Gotch and Saunders, the architects.

Caption For Southport, Convalescent Home 1902

It was built to take advantage of the prevailing south-westerly winds, and it reinforced Southport's claim to be a health resort.

Caption For Aldeburgh, Parade 1909

On the right is a lookout tower and boat house for one of Aldeburgh's two lifeboats. The other is just to its left in the distance.

Caption For Norwich, Elm Hill 1929

The street contains a variety of old buildings, from Tudor to Georgian.

Caption For Cambridge, Sidney Street 1931

These days, Cambridge streets have become so congested that parts of the city are no-go areas for cars. Here, the policeman directing traffic appears to have an easy job!

Caption For Datchet, High Street 1905

Datchet is mentioned in Shakespeare's 'Merry Wives of Windsor' and Jerome K Jerome's 'Three Men in a Boat'.

Caption For Norwich, Riverside Road And River Wensum 1901

By 1901, the Riverside Road development of the 1880s and 1890s was maturing. This view also shows the old towpath, with moored barges, prior to the improvements for pleasure boating.

Caption For York, Lendal Bridge 1909

Built of cast-iron, the bridge was opened in 1863 and improved the city by giving direct access to the original railway station, which was situated within the city walls.

Caption For Harrogate, The Royal Pump Room 1923

In 1902, bumpers of sulphuric and chalybeate were dispensed here from seven o'clock in the morning onwards. After taking the first glass, a mild constitutional in Valley Gardens was recommended.

Caption For Bexhill On Sea, Parade 1903

However, with the rapid growth of the resort, it acquired borough status; its area extended from Pevensey Sluice to Bulverhythe.

Caption For Boroughbridge, 1907

Boroughbridge, to the southeast of Ripon, dates back to Norman times, when a bridge was constructed over the Ure. It was then known as Burgbridge, the borough on the bridge.

Caption For Charmouth, From East Cliffs C1960

Here we see Evans Cliff and the view westwards to the Cobb at Lyme Regis (far left) beyond the landslips and mud-flows of Black Ven and the Shambles (centre).

Caption For Lakeside, From Fell Foot 1914

Much of the large area included in the centre is woodland. Here the 'camp' title is well justified by the neatly erected tents, with two people folding ground sheets (left).

Caption For Overcombe, "The Nineteenth Hole" C1960

Golf became an enjoyable recreation for a new generation of enthusiasts after the Second World War. Clubhouses, such as this one, became places to socialise and relive old golfing triumphs.

Caption For Burley, Cross And Post Office C1960

During the 20th century Burley grew considerably in size, with a number of villa-style residences tucked away among the trees and heathlands. It has never lost its village atmosphere.

Caption For Cadnam, The Sir Walter Tyrrell C1960

Named after the knight who killed William Rufus, the Sir Walter Tyrrell became another hostelry that achieved prominence during the age of popular motoring - as this full car park indicates.

Caption For Maidstone, Old House, Chatham Road C1965

This is Old Farm House, an old Wealden-type hall house on Chatham Road. This house has been restored and is typical of 15th-century building in the wooded Weald.

Caption For Ipswich, Fore Street 1893

This view looks northwards towards Tavern Street, with St Lawrence's church on the left; peering over the rooftops in the background is the unmistakable spire of St Mary-le-Tower.

Caption For Southport, Convalescent Home 1902

It was built to take advantage of the prevailing south- westerly winds, and it reinforced Southport's claim to be a health resort.
