High Street, Newnham, Gloucestershire

The start of the sweeping High Street in Newnham, photographed in 1910. The River Severn is situated to the photographer’s left. The large building on the right (with three upper-floor windows) is ‘The Old House’ – one of the
most prestigious houses in the village. It was built in 1680 for a wine merchant and is Grade II* listed. Credit: Forest Prints (Ian Thomas)
By August 2017, the large building on the left of the photograph has long gone, but other buildings remain largely unchanged. Photograph: © Steven Miell (TimeViews)
