I never realised that!

I have heard the story, but never been able to make a photo connection before. Pretty impressive really and I am surprised that Southampton County Council bothered… as they normally just knock the lot down and flatten… rebuild.

For “hoofinruth” I’ve labelled some of the pictures so you can get your bearings…that is if you know Millbrook. Looks like they were taken in the early to mid '70s…

Thank you LitSL! I don’t know that side of town at all well as I was a Sholing girl. But it’s kind of you to go to so much trouble

That’s OK…at a loose end this morning. You can find it all on Google Earth…quite good fun to explore.

Mystery clock. Is this on the buildings in Northam? Or is it the old shops opposite Millbrook towers.
