Park Lane. Lawd only knows where.


These houses still stand too, on the right hand side just after you turn into park lane from the A4.

This 1905 picture will probably be unchanged today.


The field in the foreground is now a road !

These two aren't so once again, local input.?



Again, Chamberhouse Farm still stands, on the river kennet.  It is on the right hand side before you come up to Thatcham Train station from the Base.  Have no idea about Grays Pond though !

Here is another postcard of Chapel Street, dated 1915, with the street just turning into the Broadway.
