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.

Sulgrave, Northamptonshire, c1920

Sulgrave, Northamptonshire, circa 1920. Sulgrave is a village in South Northamptonshire, near Banbury. This view hasn't changed too much in the intervening years. The road now has a proper surface. The thatched cottage on the left has gone and the post office is now a private house. Postcard by Blinkhorns of Banbury.
