More about this scene
A wonderful scene, taken in Edwardian days, of Bell Weir Lock. A conglomeration of craft are passing through the lock on a warm summer's day, with not a motor boat in sight. The M25 now crosses just downstream of Bell Weir, beside Lutyens' bridge for the by-pass, which was designed in 1937, but not built until 1959-60.

If any one can remember the bakery Mick and Louis Whitmore, I would love to hear your story. Thank-you

My grandmother used to own and run the nursing home at Northdene on Egham Hill (just where it joined at Middle Hill). I believe it burned down a few years ago and was rebuilt as flats at Northdene Court. I lived there with my grandmother during the mid sixties until I moved up to Edinburgh in '71 after my grandmother died. My uncle still lives in Englefield Green.
