Aerial view probably from the 1930s or 1940s. The roofs of 26 High Street are visible in the top right corner. The part of the building under the roof running left to right with a gable end onto the street has since been demolished. All that is left is under the roof running at right angles to the demolished roof, leaving the building set back from the high street, tucked behind number 24 which is to its left on this photograph. |

From the Church tower, probably about 1960. This building was demolished, probably in the 1970s. When it was demolished the old roof timbers were found to be blacken by smoke, suggesting the building originally had a central fireplace. |
