Caption For Tongham, 1921

The White Hart pub (right) still stands on the corner, but this row of ramshackle shops on the left, that once included a draper's, a tobacconist and a motor-garage and cycle works, have

Caption For Redditch, The Parade, Church Green West C1955

But a few do still refer to Hepworths Corner, even though Hepworths went from this site long ago.

Caption For Oxford, Cowley 1890

Later, Cowley was to change forever when the motor industry began to envelop this corner of the city in the early years of the 20th century.

Caption For Wickford, High Street C1950

We are looking south, towards Halls Corner. The shops on the left were built with bricks from the Nevendon Road brickworks. The shrubs conceal Ladybrow, a former doctor's house and surgery.

Caption For London, The Tower Of London, Martin Tower C1930

This tower is on the north-east corner of the fortress's inner wall. The D-shaped tower was much rebuilt in Charles II's reign, when it was made the Jewel Tower.

Caption For Cadnam, Twin Oaks 1932

Cadnam, or Cadenham, stands at an important road junction at the north-western corner of the New Forest; sooner or later every traveller in the locality is bound to pass through the village.

Caption For Dartford, Crown And Anchor Inn C1955

This restored medieval house, on the corner of Bullace Lane, is claimed to have been the home of the Kentish rebel Wat Tyler.

Caption For Bradwell, The Church C1955

No one is sure if they are round because of the difficulty of making corners out of flint, or because they were built for defensive purposes, or because the builders simply liked the look of round towers

Caption For Bath, Pulteney Hotel 1914

The houses on the north corner of Laura Place became an hotel in 1866 and acquired the ornate iron and glass porch early this century.

Caption For Hartford, All Saints Church 1898

Like a watch tower overlooking the river, the tower is embattled and has pinnacles at the corners. The church was restored in 1861 by Hutchinson, who rebuilt the chancel arch in the Norman style.

Caption For Abridge, The Village C1960

We have turned the corner we saw in photograph A106020. The view is much the same today, with Gould's Cottages (c1840) on the left-hand side.

Caption For Burford, Cotswold Gateway C1955

Situated on the corner of the A40 and the High Street, the appropriately named Cotswold Gateway Hotel opened in 1928. The building was once used as a boarding house for the local school.

Caption For Tirril, From Penrith Road C1955

This corner of Cumbria abounds in associations with the poet.

Caption For Harborne, Prince's Corner C1965

Prince's Corner was named after Prince Albert - as if to emphasise the point, the road on the left here is Albert Road.

Caption For London, The Tower C1950

William the Conqueror's White Tower keep, with its later jaunty ogee-roofed corner turrets, dominates the scene. Dating from the late 11th century, it is still the focus of the castle.

Caption For Eynsham, High Street C1950

E M Mumford, on the corner of the High Street and the Market Square, displayed enamel trade signs on its gable end when this photograph was taken in the mid 1950s.

Caption For Wantage, The Square And Town Hall C1950

Note the variety of architectural styles in this corner of the Market Place. The building on the right is timber- framed and infilled with herringbone brickwork.

In the north-west corner of the parish lies the ancient Hatfield Forest.

Caption For Morston, The Village C1955

This corner, just before the Anchor public house, is still familiar to any coast road traveller. On the right the houses still offer boat trips up the nearby creek to Blakeney Point.

Caption For New Forest, Queens Bower 1908

Nobody knows for sure why this delightful corner of the Forest is called Queen's Bower. The origins of the name are lost in the mists of antiquity.

Caption For Shalford, St Catherine's Lock 1904

The party in the bottom left-hand corner seem to have abandoned their boat for a rest on the bank. This view is upstream of St Catherine's Lock.

Caption For Liskeard, Church Street 1906

We see here a corner just below the church. The houses use much finer slates than those seen in Launceston. The house with the porch is one of the oldest in town.
