6:48 - 22 Poplar Grove? Grew up on this road (1987-2004) 15:15 - Coombe Road, north of the train station. Buildings on the left of the photo bombed? 16:54 - GRAFTON ROAD (facing East). Houses to left now Apex Tower and its car park; houses to the right all gone except the one facing onto the high street; the parade of shops on the left corner of Dukes Avenue also disappeared. 19:33 - Taken from the signal box. 19:44 - THE CUT. Would have loved to see a photo facing left too.
So much appreciation of Icelandic sagas in this town....
Wow that has bought back some memories. Including the flooding under the railway bridge!
Thankyou so much for this 🙏 priceless
Some of it looks familiar, and some unrecognisable Interesting to see how empty the roads were just a few decades ago.
10:19 the old Mick Charles model shop.
Brilliant - let's have more please.
So depressing
