Well it looks like the boundary wall of Weston Park as it passes through Weston-under-Lizard. However I suspect that western edge of Staffordshire may be a little out of area.

Dave, I just took Sutton Valance on the map, headed due north and suggested Rainham as a starting point. Hardly the right answer! If you've a problem finding a suitable image however, let me know and I'll step in as your "second".

Near enough for me, the two shops are now housing.
There used to be a wide range of shops along The Banks, that I knew that stretch of High Street as. I went to a barber somewhere along there in the 60s.
Over to you DTT.
Edit
just noticed that this is my 1000 post!!

124 High Street, Rainham. Next door to PHC Home care. The buildings along that row are in a poor state.

I will pass on this one.
The steps are still there, with railings nearly as old as the photo.

Interesting, Proper History. I do wonder if there has been a comparable event to the dissolution of the monastries in this country. The upheaval was huge.
Meanwhile a simple couple of shops, but where? Photo from 1980s I believe.
