View from Bedford House -
Looking onto Corporation Street, Mecca Bingo and the bus
station. I never knew that there were trees on both sides of
Corporation Street.
Vivary Park 1961 -
Thunderbirds are go!!
The Tudor Tavern & Devon &
Somerset Stores 1961 -
But notice the gate in
foreground. What was that for? It looks like its blocking off
Corporation Street. Can anyone enlighten us?
Beam Bridge Hotel Steam
Train - But it's right next to the hotel...Uh!!
River Tone, Bishops Hull
West Buckland -
Getting ready for the motorway.
Poundisford - This is
a superb picture of the clearing done for the M5 motorway. It
looks like some sort of runway made by a space ship in a
sci-fi movie.
