The Customs House is far right.
The bank on the right, 1920s extensions to two houses, went in 1975. Its drab replacement Nat West Bank is now (in 2000) Methvens booksellers.
The Black Boy is on the left, with the Victorian school, now a house, beyond the car. The ugly lean-to on the cottage has been replaced by a conservatory, and the railings by a rubble stone wall.
It is said that Drummond was sitting under the great sycamore tree in front of the house when Jonson trudged up the path. Drummond met him with 'Welcome, welcome, royal Ben!'
It has the usual mixture of banks and public houses on its corners. A National Savings Centre is tucked away on the left of our picture, and the Millstone Hotel is at the far side.
In the 10th century, when permission was granted for a house to be built on the bar, the yearly rent charged was sixpence.
The public house on the right is the White Horse; the statue of a horse can be seen rearing above the Tower Ales sign. Towards the bar old stonework still remains, with a sign for Pullman's Coaches.
Here we see the village square, surrounded with black and white houses and clogged with randomly-parked cars.

The Morris 1000 is heading west past the post office towards Tudor House - with its steeply pitched roof of stone tiles, it is one of Mickleton's notable buildings.
The building just beyond, Grove End House is a listed building, but it is currently in a state of severe dilapidation and desperately needs rescuing.
A line of genteel houses is now an indifferent row of shops.
Some of the houses on the left are boarded up and empty in this photograph, but when they were for sale in August 1920 they were described as 'a Block of Four Capital Cottages'.
Kiveton Park was once an estate belonging to Sir Thomas Osborne, Earl of Danby and later First Duke of Leeds; the house, designed by William Talman, has long since been demolished.
