Postcards Then and Now

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.

Lent Rise, Buckinghamshire c1913

Lent Rise was once a village south of Burnham on the Berks/Bucks borders. Now it is part of Burnham. The Lent Rise Post Office, run by W. Cornell, successor to C. H. Jarratt, is now the Burnham Bread 'n' Beer store.
