Kingscote on the far left is dated 1892, while the two gables in the middle distance, with the shop, belong to a U-plan house with a date stone '1688', but much altered.
Hidden away behind the Green Man Inn, the Red Lion is nowadays a popular, floodlit public house, painted a glowing orange but retaining the thatched roof.
Cliff House was built in the mid 19th century by the Pease family, who owned the nearby Upleatham Ironstone Mines. It was sold to the Holiday Fellowship organisation before the Second World War.
Bridge House and the bridge over the Stour are now owned by the National Trust.
Beyond the railway-like gate is the blacksmith's house.
The house was built as a war memorial for the city and county, and provided 130 rooms. Following the closure of the hospital, the building has been converted into luxury apartments.
Small buildings with Spartan facilities provided an inexpensive holiday for many people for whom even staying in a boarding house or hotel was beyond their financial reach.
The large colon- naded building is the Winter Villa, built by the Earl of Mount Edgecumbe for his wife, who found the winters at Mount Edgecumbe House a little too draughty.
On the left is the town's Post Office, converted from a private house.
At the far end on the left is the Ancient House, with its unmistakable overhanging upper storey.
The hipped-roofed two storey house beyond survives, but not those beyond, which went for the Friarage Rod/Exchange Street dual carriageway.
The lady in the centre appears to be the mistress of the house instructing her two servants.
The southern end of the High Street widens slightly here, with houses and an inn just visible behind the line of trees.

The elaborate Elizabethan structure in the centre, with tiers of multi-paned windows and a high gallery, was the renowned Mol's Coffee House, standing beside Cathedral Green.
It houses eleven specially- commissioned statues of Welsh and Celtic figures, of which the central figure is Dewi Sant or Saint David.
This popular public house can be reached only by boat, bicycle or on foot - cars are not allowed on the narrow track across Exminster marshes.
Edward Gibbon, the historian who wrote 'The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire', lived at the Manor House as a child.
The M20 now cuts directly across this picture, and new factory and housing developments fill the scene.
The village at this time is an unspoilt mix of traditional single-storey thatched crofts and solid-looking two-storey stone houses.
The nearby manor house of Wolfeton was built in the reign of Henry VIII, and was for many years the home of the Trenchard family.
Lining the street are various charming cottages and houses of character.
The houses in the distance have been demolished. The reed beds along the river were once harvested for the local Loveday family, who produced baskets, horse collars, chair seats and other products.
