Description
Summary: photograph, bw photograph from series showing the two sides of the High Street, here including the premises of the Old Bank House restaurant, G P Pearce and Co, china and glass merchant, and of H B Gosling and Co, hairdressers, at 68 to 70 High Street, Lymington, Lymington and Pennington, Hampshire, 1946
Summary: From a series of photographs of Lymington High Street taken by local photographer Frederick Drew, and later published in R Coles's 'Lymington High Street Then and Now'. A transcript of the captions from the book, briefly noting changes between 1946 and 1976, is filed with the photographs. The negatives from which these prints were made appear to have themselves been made from earlier prints. The owner of the negatives also donated a number of spare prints which appear, by their sharper quality, to come from this earlier series.
