Come Friendly Bombs and fall on Slough.

 A recent purchase beloved readers from a nice gentleman at Portobello market, a catalogue of "recent " work by Mr William Wood & Son of Taplow published in 1933.
 Apparently all these splendid views were taken in the Slough area.
 Things have certainly changed somewhat since then.
 This pond would probably be full of shopping trolleys and car tyres now.
 These delightful buildings would have been vandalised.
 And this wonderful thatched pavilion below would be burnt to the ground.
This rant was bought to you by the Bognor Bugle.
Thank you very much.
