Charlie White on the left with his mate who we think is Charlie Stone, sorting out the gas main in Meeching Road. The building to the left of the Memorial in the distance is Sussex Lodge.
This part of the road where they were working forms part of South Way, as in 1972 the house on the right of the picture in Meeching Road was demolished to make way for the new one-way system.
The Transport Memorial from WW1 in back ground was later moved and can now be found next to the Canadian Dieppe Raid Memorial on the green at the junction of Bridge Street and South Way.
