Perhaps A Year Or Two Early

I'm not absolutely sure the garden was as spick and span as this at the turn of the sixties, but it wasn't that long before it became this way. It had been a ruin until the early fifties when a brutalist electricity sub ...Read more

Caption For Newton Abbot, Courtenay Park 1906

Located just across the road from the train station, the park is named after the Courtenays, who were responsible for much of the building in town (they owned most of the land).

Caption For Wilton, The Square C1965

In this view of the Market Place, the vehicles in the car park are typical of the period, and the van in the centre probably came from nearby RAF Chilmark.

Caption For Treherbert, The Falls C1960

As this village is at the far north of the Rhondda it is not too far from the Brecon National Park, famous for its rivers and waterfalls, carving out the limestone country.

Caption For Normanton, Hawhill Park C1955

This rose garden was the site of Hawhill Park's first bowling green.

Caption For Stafford, Victoria Park C1955

The park proved so popular that a further extension was created across the river and linked by a new bridge opened in 1911 to commemorate the coronation of George V - hence the name, Coronation

Caption For Stafford, Victoria Park C1960

The park proved so popular that a further extension was created across the river and linked by a new bridge opened in 1911 to commemorate the coronation of George V - hence the name, Coronation

Caption For Sutton On Sea, High Street C1955

The late Victorian buildings opposite survive, although sadly they have had all their windows replaced, and Green's on the right is now the Park Tavern.

Caption For Fulbourn, Post Office C1968

The post office scene is virtually unchanged, except that the sun canopy has gone, and bicycle parking replaces the postbox under the cigarette advertisement, which has also vanished.

Caption For Draughton, The Village C1955

A delivery van is parked outside Yellow Cottage.

Caption For Chesterfield, The Cricket Ground, Queens Park C1950

Proposals were drawn up for a new pavilion, indoor nets, and a banqueting suite at Queen's Park, but were turned down by Chesterfield Borough Council.

Caption For Chester, Curzon Park West 1906

It then continued to Eaton Park and Saltney. In 1906 it was more expensive to sit inside a Chester tram than on the exposed upper deck.

Caption For Haverfordwest, From The Castle C1965

Looking to the north-east the course of the Western Cleddau can just be seen at the bottom of the picture beyond what would have been part of the Marychurch Foundry.

Caption For Measham, Magna Motors C1965

Behind is the car park for the cars to come under the hammer, and the fully mechanised tuning, repairing, and testing service of Magna Motors.

Caption For Colchester, The Weir C1960

Until the 1950s Middle Mill Weir occupied the centre of this view, but the bridge over the weir remains as an important pedestrian link to the sportsfields and parks on the north bank of the River.

Caption For Grange Over Sands, The Railway 1929

Here engine 12501 steams along the front, past the town's park, where the conical-roofed bandstand is prominent.

Caption For Road Weedon, Watling Street C1965

To the right are the post-war council houses and the filling station in the Globe Hotel car park. The blue sign for the M1 (left) is a new addition to the countryside.

Caption For Swansea, Brynmill Park 1925

This is the 'Swan Park'. As 19th-century Swansea outgrew its water supply, the Board of Health remedied the situation by building two reservoirs, one at Brynmill and one at Cwmdonkin.

Caption For Hallow, The Post Office And Oakleigh Avenue C1955

Today, however, it has grown, with an extension to the right of the building; in order to accommodate customers, much of the grass verge in the foreground has been taken over by parking space.

Caption For Crantock, The Village C1960

Here we see a quiet scene in the centre of a village that has become overwhelmed by post-war bungalow developments and surrounded by caravan and camping parks.

Caption For Astwood Bank, The Park C1965

The park seems to have been popular then, but is less so today. Maybe the constant traffic on neighbouring Evesham Road puts people off.

Caption For Wednesfield, High Street C1965

It was decided to demolish numerous properties and to rebuild them further back, thus widening the road and providing parking.

Ref. 69180
Caption For Hope, 1919

Perhaps a sign of the times, an open-topped automobile is parked outside the Old Hall Hotel, opposite the tree-fringed churchyard.

Caption For Sutton, The Woodstock, Stonecot Hill C1955

The Woodstock, constructed in the 1930s, continues to flourish today as it clearly did when this photograph was taken with these cars parked in the forecourt, although the frontage of the pub has since

Caption For Great Baddow, White Horse And Pump C1965

The White Horse stands in the High Street with a car park at the rear. Note the tall, brick-built chimneys. On the grass in front of the hotel is a pump and a trough.
