Hello!

Any ideas please as to the location of this

Church, lytch gate on junction. Possibly West Country?


Another image from a small collection of Devon & Cornwall views c1911. Could it be round the TAVISTOCK  area? No traders' name lettering on shop.

With thanks~001uk

I think it is St John the Baptist, Paignton, Devon

001uk,
           Can I ask you please  would. You be willing to post one of your interesting photos as  A Caption competition please?  Preferably with people in it please?

Several years ago we had a regular weekly caption comp, which was very popular.  Perhaps we could restart it, with your help?

Isn't the man on the right of the gate holding a small suitcase?
Perhaps he's saying "Doesn't look much like a B&B, but it's definitely the address the tourist office gave me"

Good evening,

Moving on about 100yrs someone has left the gate open and the bloke has changed his clothes and is going for the bus.
