About


Co-founder of Our Town Story. If you have any questions about the site, or wish to provide feedback, please visit the Admin forum and post in the appropriate place - we'll do our best to help you out as quickly as we can!

We really want Our Town Story to be an album for your old photos, to fill in the gaps in the history books of our villages, towns and cities. We would also love for those pictures to be able to help others - for instance by using reminiscence therapy in treating dementia

We're still a work in progress, and we appreciate all suggestions and observations!

Image Details

This view appears to have been taken during the First World War, with Hazell's on the corner of Kings Road - narrow as it was then.

Brentwood Chess Club apparently used to meet in the Recreation Institiute just the other side of the junction. The Institute was lost during the widening of Kings Road and its junction with the High Street.

Hint: Drag the orange pegman to see the Streetview image...
