Date:1962 - 1975 (c.)

Description:Postcard view taken from the bottom of Church Hill. The shop in the right foreground was George Blagg and Son, Ironmongers since the 1870s, which finally closed its doors in 2003. It had a yard and warehouse behind. For a relatively short period they also had the premises seen on the opposite corner.

The double-yellow lines were introduced to the United Kingdom by an act of 1960. The woman's skirt length dates this postcard to possibly the mid 1960s.
