Although called High Street, this picture depicts part of the present Wappenham Road and was taken from a corner of Hill Farm looking towards the War Memorial. The thatched cottages on the right have long gone and been replaced by Peter Payne's builders' yard. The roof of the Chapel can be seen. Little has changed on the immediate left. The cottages in the middle distance are no longer thatched and the nearest one has been extended. The house beyond the cottages has been redeveloped and now belongs to the Vicars family and, of course, the bungalows beyond that are a comparatively new development. The exact date of the photograph is not known but there is no railway viaduct visible in the far background so it was probably taken about the turn of the last century.
