The Boulevard (x 3) - 1900 to 1960's ?

Three more images of the Boulevard, all looking in the same general direction, but from different periods. The top one dates to around 1900 - 1915, the middle one dates to the 1920's and the bottom one is probably the 1960's.
I like the 1920's one best.

  1. Three nice views Colin, I prefer the name "Boulevard" rather than "Station Square" as it says in the middle photo. It's a pity the old Telegraph building had to go to make way for Morrisons though, it was a nice bit of architecture.

  2. I would put the top picture neare to the 1920s due to the enclosed tramcar.
