A1 through Alnwick, Northumberland
Taken in the summer of 1967 this picture shows the town long before the by-pass was built. It's amazingly quiet, devoid of trucks and buses that often clogged up the narrow streets just beyond this point.
Martins Bank still trades under the sign of the grasshopper, next door but one to the Midland Bank (before it would be under the sign of the griffin) - now Barclays and HSBC respectively.
