A House on Bedford Street
Photo
Where was Bedford Street? Isn't this the house in the High Street which is now occupied by a Solicitors Office?
Being one of the telecom repair men for the town I figured I knew most of the streets, but I can't place Bedford Street?
As stated originally, I am certain this IS an old photo of the property where Bedford Solicitors now operate in the HIGH STREET. Interesting to note detail when the photo is examined closely such as the haphazard layers of brickwork repairs/addition to the left and above the doorway. I wonder if originally the doorway was much higher and wider, such as an open entrance to a yard or similar. Also the line of a apparent "joint" extending virtually all the way up to the right of the doorway where an adjacent property has possibly been added afterwards.
Concerning the comment regarding the haphazard brick repairs; it appears to me that this is an example of a building faced with mathematical tiles, as commonly found in the Lewes and Brighton areas.
It was Bedford and Welstead. Between Barclays Bank and the White Hart. I remember when Mr Welstead moved on they just scored two lines through his name on the brass plaque, very professional.
