Re: Today in pictures
That pub was built before the railway and was right in the path of the forthcoming construction of the bridge.
It was pulled down and rebuilt before 1842 and is very much the same today, apart from moving the communal loo outside to separate facilities for him and her indoors.
I still like to listen to the song "Four in the morning" sung by Faron Young which the landlady played when she wanted us out, usually at 4AM.
Picture number 2 is the little lane I walked up and down to school every weekday and Sunday morning for Church.
No. 3 That's the road that led to the lane.
By the looks if the over grown lane it seems the kids from the hills will be taken to and from the school in motor vehicles in this modern age.
The 2 and 3 were taken where the road ends and the lane starts, just enough room to turn my car around, you don't think I walked up there, did you?
