Caption For Preston, Dock, North Side C1960

Having Avenham Park in the background does enhance the pleasure of a walk over the bridge. Avenham Tower can be seen in the trees to the right, and the paths lead away to Frenchwood.

Caption For Abergavenny, Frogmore Street 1914

The bicycles parked outside the bank on the left might well have been bought at the Cycle & Sports Depot farther down the street. Thoughts of war seem far away in this peaceful, unhurried scene.

Caption For Quernmore, The Crossroads C1955

Quernmore Park Hall lies just over a mile north of the village. A quern was a Roman hand-mill, and the moor behind the village had the ideal material to make these small mill-stones.

Caption For Polegate, The Horse And Groom C1955

Apart from a larger car park and shortened chimney stacks, little has changed in this view since the 1950s.

As one of the town's major employers, Kodak gave £10,000 for a new children's playground to be built in Gadebridge Park to replace the one lost by the construction of the Plough roundabout.

Caption For Woburn, The Park C1960

It was many years later that the enjoyment given by proximity to the native deer led to the establishment of the safari park as a major part of the attraction of a day out at Woburn.

Caption For Clifton Hampden, The Plough Inn C1960

The inn has been extended since 1960, but otherwise this view is relatively unchanged, although to the left there is, of necessity, a car park.

There are few cars other than those parked between the Cromwell statue and the war memorial, and people are able to pass the time of day in the middle of the road.

At the same time as the rebuilding, the osier beds on the northern side were taken up and Riverside Park was created.

Caption For Rothley, Woodgate C1965

Even the car parking is beginning to lurch towards the need for yellow lines, and all that goes with them.

Caption For Cranham, Prinknash Abbey, The Laity Chapel C1960

Incense-making has taken place at Prinknash for many years, and a Bird Park helps to attract visitors. The celebrated Prinknash Pottery has recently closed, sad to say.

More recently light engineering and commercial enterprises have become part of the business park developments.

Caption For Churchtown, Entrance To Botanical Gardens C1965

Refurbished and divided into a park and playing fields, the gardens were reopened in August 1937 as the Botanic Gardens and King George Playing Fields.

Caption For Ickleford, The Church And Lychgate C1960

It runs beneath the car park, but has now been blocked off.

Caption For Luton, Vauxhall Motors C1955

The fact that is was possible to park on the side of the hill without a problem makes this photograph one to be treasured. The building on the left is K Block, with F Block on the right.
