A couple of interesting snaps from local resident Alan showing Moor lane from 1920 (pre- Nos 1-14 Moor Lane) & circa 1950 about 10 years after the houses were built.
Rosebank Cottages c1920
- View approx. from what is now 8 Moor Lane looking across to Rosebank Cottages.
- Spot the pond (long since gone).
Moor Lane c1950
- You can clearly see the two conker trees either side of the lane (quite clearly coppiced in this picture).
- No white lines seperating New Lane and Moor Lane (clearly Health & Safety had yet to rear its head).
