Growing Up In Lower Belvedere

The Great North Road
How great was the Great North Road when it squeezed through these ancient gates until the early 1970s? Traffic built up on both sides waiting to get through. For a child this was the spot that marked where our holidays began, ...Read more

Another picture of St Faith's Church, taken six years after the previous photograph. The trees have grown and the whole scene looks more rural.
Another fine view, this time taken at high tide. The river washes the quayside above the bridge. The Church of St Peter dominates the scene.
Here we see North's House (centre), and Polly Miller's (left) - both named after fondly remembered former
Another view of the Spa buildings, this time from Promenade level. There is no record of why the huge banners proclaiming Queen Victoria are displayed.
Another evocative view of the Medway, this time looking downstream round the meander bend. The quiet scene belies the nearness of the industrial town.
The busy river: this view shows both its commercial and leisure aspects. A barge loads at the quay, pleasure boats take trippers for a cruise.
Both villages feature many delightful stone and timber houses.
Another view of the cathedral. Behind the cathedral, the Necropolis can be seen, stretching from the left and to the right of the photograph.
This is another view from the same road that passes through Hucclecote to Barnwood, but before the advent of fast cars and lorries. The avenue still remains.
Another view, this time looking south along the beach towards Carrickfergus. Belfast Lough is on the left, and the hotel and refreshment room are on the right.
Another view of Bank Road in the centre of Matlock. Where the man is crossing the road on the left is now a pedestrian- controlled crossing.
Another turn-of-the-century view of Newland Street, looking towards the Collingwood Road junction, bustling with pedestrians.A few onlookers, including two dogs, watch the photographer at work.
Great Yarmouth has two piers, Wellington and Britannia, both built in the 1850s. The Britannia Pier is at the northern end of Marine Parade, the main seafront thoroughfare.
Here we see another view of this superb building, this time showing a more expansive view of the gardens and tennis court.
Another view of the charming seaside town and port, this time looking to the prominent landmark, the 70 ft mound and ruined castle of 1821.
Here we see another view of the Wye valley. Again, trees and attractive small fields give a vivid impression of the glorious nature of the Derbyshire Peak District.
Another view of Derwent Terrace and the Promenade. This shows the Jubilee Bridge crossing the Derwent - the bridge was erected to mark the jubilee of Queen Victoria's reign.
Here we see another view of the long, straggling street with its delightful half-timbered cottages and the brick Baptist Chapel on the opposite side of the road.
Both were added to a 15th-century structure.
The granite stone of Bodmin Moor supports a natural oddity, the impressive outcrop known as the Cheesewring (another name for a cheese press).
Another view of this fine building, as it was when it was still covered with climbing vegetation. The two-storey porch probably dates from the late 14th century.
Here we see another tramcar and more granite setts. There is some activity around the base of the statue - are the two ladies selling flowers and button-holes?
At Kinsley Wood the ER was planted on both sides of the hill.
A short flight in this light aircraft, even just a few hundred feet up, would give the sightseeing holidaymaker a marvellous view of both the coastline and the Broads inland.
