In the background a trolleybus is about to pass a tram as it heads towards the Town Hall. Like the electric tramcar, the trolleybus drew its power from overhead and did not require rails.
The 12th-century tower and spire of St Mary's Church viewed from the Market Place, a symbol of the mediaeval prosperity brought to this little town from wool-trading.
Today this road has far more traffic than a solitary horse and cart. The buildings on the right stand at the junction with Belmont Road, and are now the Belmont Inn.

The Market Square is at the busy cross-roads in the centre of this delightful small town.
During the Middle Ages, the town's prosperity grew with the woollen industry, and it became an important yarn market.
