Pinehurst Home
David Share was a very good freind of mine. I have a photo of him at the school fete and would love to speak with him. We used to save stamps and do swops together. I still save stamps and have quite a collection now.

Food Outlets
I can remember the suppliers of food and the taxi rank on the island at the Clock Tower - their pies were particularly nice and the taxi drivers very friendly. At the same place the freshly loaded coal wagons used to park ...Read more

Its more modern replacement now obscures part of the side of the shelter.
Still independent, it has a range of real ales and guest ales and serves food. Upper Clatford is a mile and a quarter south of Andover.
In 1888, when the site for the new library at Old Cross was being dug, a jumble of stones from the 13th-century St Mary the Less were uncovered.
This late Victorian scene is typical of many of the towns and villages in England at the time.
To the left of this photograph lies a golf course; over time more land has had to be purchased owing to erosion. In front of the chemist is a 1950 Daimler Consort saloon.
It is sad that the essentially 1930s character of the shop fronts has been eroded away by plate glass and aluminium.
Looking back to the former Empire Hotel, opened in 1901 and a poor counterweight to the Abbey, we see the houses of Terrace Walk on the left, now with ground-floor shops, which faced the Greek temple-style
A monument to Queen Victoria stands in the park in front of the 16th-century Christchurch Mansion.
Foregate Street was one of the city locations painted by artist Louise Rayner (1832-1924) in a work entitled 'A Busy Street'. It certainly looks busy enough in this picture.
The Master Builder's House, now an hotel, was built by Henry Adams so that he might cut a dash on ship-launching days.
A new visitor centre now marks the entrance to Conisbrough Castle, one of the best-preserved Norman castles in the country.
What a contrast to the previous photograph this view of Kirkgate, Otley is. The lovely market town lies at the entrance to Wharfedale.
Looking in the opposite direction to No S23030 (page 79), we can see on the right-hand site of the street two of the 48 public houses that could be found in the town in 1889.
We are looking along Albion Terrace into Station Street, with the impressive portico of the station entrance on the left in the distance. The railway arrived in Saltburn in 1861.
This pleasant open space next to the railway line was donated as a recreation ground by Alderman Arthur Bennett, a former mayor and a passionate believer in the importance of preserving Warrington's historic
The Scotland Road area can be seen in the distance - this was at a time before the impact of the building of the Cockhedge Shopping Centre in the 1980s.
The west side offered some of Warrington's finest shops.
After this feat of engineering in May 1981, the Academy was demolished and rebuilt! The single-storey public conveniences (far right) vanished with the building of the second river crossing.
This view from the Lord Rodney Hotel looking towards Central Station shows the increase in road signs and road markings necessary with the growth of road traffic in the 1960s.
The King's Arms, then run by R G Wood, has closed, but the arms remain on the present carpet shop. Beyond is the brick Lloyds Bank of 1896.
This broad junction is now occupied by a mini-roundabout, but in 1911 it appears that nobody was too bothered about which side of the unmade road traffic chose to use.
The buildings to the left are the river side of Quay Street and served as port facilities for the town. Quay Street was also once known as 'Schippistrete', a very descriptive title.
The Prison Governor's House, now the home of the excellent Town Museum, built in 1779 at the same time as the first prison, was built within the Castle precinct.
It was to Inverary that MacIan of Glencoe was sent to swear allegiance to William III. MacIan's unavoidable delay in reaching Inverary led to the massacre of Glencoe.
