Programme

The photographer stood in High Street South
when he took these. The Parade marked the
50th Anniversary of Victory in Europe 1945.

In the photograph below, the building painted blue above the windows is the Conservative Club.

The cottage beyond the club was the birthplace of Bernard Vann V.C.

The building to the right of the Club was two stone cottages and is where Barry Miller runs his men's hairdressing salon.

Next was Bill Poole's Hoover sales and repairs, and then a greengrocery.

The last building in the row is the Wagon & Horses public house, closed in 2006 and now in 2008, houses an Indian restaurant.
