Another in those occasional series where I ask you to identify the road, and of course you have to explain your answer. I will give you that the postcard was sent on November 5th 1928, and that Jack wrote to his mother that he was glad “that you arrived all right at Southport last Saturday also had a nice cup of tea with Kay. Thank her for meeting you at the station. I took Nan to the White City (old Botanical Garden) to see the Motor Cycle Race”.
Not that this helps identify the place. Nor does the fact that if I have got this right the car was registered in Bradford. There are web sites which help you do this. I found this out when someone left a comment on the post http://chorltonhistory.blogspot.com/2012/02/day-photographer-took-picture-of.html
While you puzzle over the road you may just notice the amount of litter on what was an almost empty street, with only the delivery boy on his bike in the distance.
