Old postcards from the early 20th century, compared to the same view shown on Google Street View today. The postcards come from my own collection. Almost all of them are from England, mainly showing West London, Middlesex, Surrey, Berks and Bucks. Click on the postcards to see enlarged versions. Street View images are the copyright of Google.

Hanworth, Middlesex, The Swan and Pond, c1910
The pub is still there, but what happened to the pond?
Yes it was Roy, filming mainly centred around the `Cement Gun` factory, renamed `ACME` for the film. The whole pub was built new in the 1920s, replacing the original `Swan` cottage pub!.
Was this the same pub used in the film "Danger by my side" & when was the upper part of the pub built?.....Roy.
