My gran lived on Harry Street in the 1960's and early 70's. I remember playing near the Trafford swing bridge and the excitement when it was opened.  Old terraced houses slums by then. Corner shops and the horrible smell from the canal. ...Read more

East Cliff (centre left) rises to the south-east; the distinctive building is Pier Terrace, which is locally known as Noah's Ark (centre right).

This view is looking towards the town centre, and the boat ('BN3', a Boston-registered boat) is heading out to the Wash and the North Sea.

Caption For Bridport, Almshouses 1903

Beyond is Magdalen House (left of centre) with Old Magdalen opposite (right of centre).

Caption For Sandbanks, Haven Hotel 1900

Even the wooden gate (centre) is newer, but of the same functional design.

Caption For Market Deeping, Market Place C1955

In the absence of a pave- ment, the two men in the centre have found a safe spot whilst they put the world to rights.

The gas light in centre picture is wonderfully ornate. The assortment of gentlemen's wear ranges from smart business to working class layabout.

Caption For Royston, Priory Gardens C1965

With not an ancient building in sight, we would be forgiven for believing that this is the centre of one of Hertfordshire's 20th-century garden cities. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Caption For Abingdon, Bridge Street C1955

This view was taken looking north along Bridge Street towards the Market Place – indeed, in the left centre of the view we can see the cupola and stair tower of the Town Hall.

Caption For Hemsworth, The Parish Church C1955

Caption For Woolsthorpe, The Village By Belvoir C1955

Even the wooden gate (centre) is newer, but of the same functional design.

In the centre of the Market Place, a busy intersection even before cars were invented, was the Toll Booth (demolished 1857) and the Boy and Barrel Inn (removed 1898).

Caption For Hitchin, Brand Street C1955

The large building, centre left, is the old Town Hall, with the Library and Mechanics' Institute to its left (now Council offices).

Caption For Barnstaple, Boutport Street 1906

Caption For Clapham, The Bridge C1881

Near to the Three Peaks, Clapham's old Manor House (1701) is now used by the National Parks Centre. The original pigeon holes can still be seen in the gable ends.
