These two pictures were on my hard disc. I think one of them was on a previous incarnation of the.net. The other is a scanned postcard I have.

Looking north.

I think you'll find that's the Station entrance (railings)on the left. The two gentlemen in the doorway on the left are in what is now the fancy Dress shop. The sash window on the side of the building is still there. The buildings on the right are long gone.
