Amersham, High Street c.1955

More about this scene
From further west this view gives a good idea of the Georgian and later brick frontages added to the mainly 17th century timber-framed cottages lining the High Street and giving the town its distinctive character. The lime trees on the right are in front of the Sir William Drake Almshouses built in 1657, an open courtyard with a brick wall and archway to the street and ranges of cottages for 'the relief of six poor widows well reputed in the parish'.
