Pictures from the past

We’re dipping into the postcard collection of Sally-Anne Richards again today to bring you “Broad Street, Montgomery.”
As you can see, Roberts shop is on the left and the church is in the distance. Narrowing down the date is more problematic, as this postcard was never sent and therefore does not have a helpful franking mark. It is likely, though, to be from the early years of the 20th century.

the photo of the canal brings back memories. my 95 year old mother recalls a barge being horse drawn at withington as the canal was navigable with care right through to shrewsbury before the war. i wonder when ir will be restored. her uncle jack pritchard at walcot road farm provided the horse and with a 1920′s hmv wind up gramaphone playing, withington must have come alive.
i also enjoyed the photo of the cricketers at prestfelde school. i was a pupil there in 1950 but do not recognise anyone in the photo.
