Harper Lane with the junction of Sandy Way.
On the left side in the distance are the shops at the bottom of Town Street (the Steep). To the right of the shops the white building was a public house, originally the Oddfellows Arms, latterly called “The Rag & Louse”. This has now been converted into 2 dwellings (May 2021). Sandy Way is the road leading to the right, a Kettley’s furniture van is parked to the rear of the shop which fronts onto Ivegate. Willow Cottage is the building on the right with the white gable end wall.
