St Johns Hall - Naval Bazaar 1909

This smart group of policemen was taken on the steps in front of St John's Hall possibly during the Second World War as my grandfather Edward Vivien Keast was in the special police force during that time.

This picture was taken in 1975. St Johns hall was constructed in 1867 and a princely sum of £1,300. Look at the round a bout! Picture supplied by John Gendall

Another view of Coinage Hall Street, once home to the Anchor Inn in the 1850s. This particular picture was taken in 1975. Picture supplied by John Gendall

Coinage Hall Street, for those of you who don't know, is opposite the the Jubilee swimming pool on the sea front. This shot taken in 1975 shows the exit sign from Taylor's garage behind the cottages. Picture supplied by John Gendall

Looking up Coinage Hall Street in the 1920's Taken for J W Meek and son. It was quite rare to see someone taking photographs in those days and people generally stood to watch.
