One small Widdy here completely oblivious to the whole concept of school as yet; plotting something secret with the dog.

These are a set of old postcards that Mrs HC got for me coz she knows I like old photos of Southport. I've matched them up with a pic from (as near as possible) the same spot taken yesterday. I think the original photos were taken in the late 1920's or early 1930's, judging by the clothes the people are wearing.
I hope you find them interesting, if not particularly scenic :teehee:














































Thanks for looking

Great stuff!  I was a pupil at St Johns School in the lat 40's. I walked along Sandbrook Rd daily during term time to our house at No1 Limont Road. Thanks for the memories!!  :thumbup: :thumbup:
