New Street, High Green.
In this scene on New Street in the early 1900s the women and children, all neatly dressed, pose for the cameraman. Jean Huddlestone, who published her memoirs in 1995, remembered regular visits to a house in the street in the 1920s when she was a little girl. She remembered that the front windows were tidily curtained and, as shown here, the edges of the steps and the window sills were whitened. The front doors were seldom used except for funerals!
