I have lived in the pretty village of Cartmel all my life and I love the quiet, calming atmosphere we have here. Once a friend and myself used to walk through the village with a nanny goat called Nancy and her 2 kids, we'd arrive in the square ...Read more

A Schoolboy's View Of Bexleyheath In The Early 1950s
I went to school in Bexleyheath between 1950 and 1954. I believe the school was in Pelham Road but I can't be sure. Maybe there was a separate infants department in North Street? My first ...Read more

All traffic to Thanet passed under its arches, where a toll was paid.
The notice on the arch restricts the speed of all motors to 6 miles per hour through the arch, while the poster beside it is advertising a fete.
Marble Arch, in the corner of the picture, was placed in the north-east corner of Hyde Park in 1851. It had been built in 1827, when it stood outside Buckingham Palace.
Again we still see the old font in front of the priory arch and a gravel path to the right, long since disappeared, which presumably led to the greenhouse shown in the view of 1885.
Immediately to the left are the trees in Euston Square, where the stonework of the Euston Arch is just visible. The arch was demolished amid much controversy in 1963.
This stone arch was built in 1869 to carry raw materials to the iron furnaces. A pedestrian tunnel was added beside the main arch owing to the increase in traffic.
Admiralty Arch at the far end of the Mall was completed in 1910 as part of the Victoria Memorial scheme; Sir Aston Webb was the architect of both the arch and the memorial.
As well as its three main arches, the bridge also has six smaller flood arches across the fields on the south bank.
Noted for its irregular arches, the bridge dates mainly from the 15th century, but some parts are thought to be much older.
Bathpool is now very much a suburb of Taunton, with the spread of the Somerset town on one side and the M5 motorway on the other.
The rounded arch of the Norman period gave way to the pointed arch, providing increased architectural strength and the opportunity for grander, expansive buildings.
This seven-arched road bridge was built in 1775 to carry the Great North Road over the river. It replaced earlier crossings dating from 1190.
The fine market cross at the entrance to the Market Place has an elaborate medieval polygonal centre, with three storeys of arched niches; the crocketed pinnacle emerges from a plainer arched
This view of the north door shows the two-arched doorway with hood mould. Inside can be seen the remains of a Norman arch.
The refined and somewhat austere rusticated three-arch bridge of 1829-32 by John Rennie, the architect of old Waterloo Bridge, has been marred by a widening in 1958 in which footways were cantilevered
The elegant, high-arched Beggars Bridge at Glaisdale is dated 1619, and carries the packhorse route from Glaisdale to Whitby across the River Esk.
The carving exudes an almost barbaric air: the capitals are full of curi- ous foliage inhabited by mythical winged creatures, writhing figures and animals, and the arches are a profusion of geometric
With the introduction of the one-way system, traffic now travels only out of town through the arch. Next to the Arch is the Baker's Arms Hotel, another 18th-century building.
William Hayward built the five-arched Henley Bridge in 1786 to replace an earlier wooden structure that had been swept away by floods. The cost was estimated to be about £10,000.
With the introduction of the one-way system, traffic now travels only out of town through the arch. Next to the Arch is the Baker's Arms Hotel, another 18th-century building.
Up until the 1930s, specially designed trams with dome-shaped tops to fit the arch travelled through Bargate.
Erosion over the years has damaged the arches, and there is plant growth above them, which has now been removed.
The designers certainly pushed the boat out: their 1893 facade is stylishly Italianate, with lots of carved stonework, banded arches and granite columns.
The George Hotel is entered through the old coaching arch under a 20th-century leaded window.
