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. Comments, questions or requests are welcome. If you repost my images on other websites (such as Facebook) please include a link to my original post.

Sunbury Cross c1914
Here's Sunbury Cross in about 1914. The sign on the clock says 'To The Recruiting Office'. Note the early Holland and Barrett shop. Photographer is not stated.
Unfortunately the modern view is not as pretty. Click here to see the same location today. If you want to see what became of the clock click here.
