Here is another early photograph of the top of High Street as seen from the junction of Wellington Road and Russell Road. The picture is undated but the scene looks Edwardian i.e. during the reign of the avuncular, bearded King Edward VII (1901-1910). Motor cars were manufactured in Britain from the 1890s onwards; only one is in sight here and it’s not moving fast enough to scatter the shoppers!
