Before the Old Market? -
Berni Inn, the George Hotel... Where precisely is this rear
view of the town Centre?
High
Street View - Multistory car park horizon...and no Clark
Shoes. But what date is this? Check out the recognizable
businesses to find out.
Now a wine bar - Most
original Tauntonian's will know that this place was one of the
most commonly used alleys in Taunton. Do you know where it is?
Sainsbury's Is A Long Time Coming
- Looking on to the famous
Lloyd & Whyte tower on the corner of Billet Street but
does any one know what the building above the no entry signs
was used for. Let us know. info@tauntoncivic.org.uk
Old Employment Exchange - Bridge
Street and the corner of Wood Street, but what year do you
think it is.
Shopping Days in East Street - See
the old CRS shop, Woolworth's and A J Baker the butchers. All
and more in this fantastic image of early 70's life.
