Towards the northwest, The Church and School are in the background, the pair of cottages on right have now been converted into one house. today grass verges are a thing of the past.

Martley Road 1920’s.

The village stores is in top centre of picture, today footpaths have replaced the ditches and verges. Looks like it was free from speeding traffic in those days.
The black and white cottage on left is where a Mr Avery ran a open all hours taxi service.
On right is the nurseries, run by the Gregory family for many years and in later times by the Boultons.

Martley Road near Ashtree Cottage 1920’s.

Near outskirts of village, at bottom of the Knoll Bank, Eastbury Cottages and junction with Lovington Lane on the left. I dont think walking here today would be advisable.
