High Street from under the railway arch in 1964. The adverts on the left are for the Bromel Club at the Bromley Court Hotel.

The Lime Tree Stores in the confusingly named Station Road. The house and tree and the tall chimney are still there (1964)

The old Survey House, facing St. Mary Cray church (1964).

Another view of Survey House, again in 1964.

Survey House from the south. This building has foundations dating back to the  C11th and still doing well in 1964.

And Survey House again. Like many shops, Brown's Domestic Store is offering Green Shield Stamps, the orign of the Argos chain (1964).

Looking south through the raiwlay arch in 1964.

The High Street loking south from the bridge. Everything has changed since 1964.

Much the same view but taken from the opposite end of the row of shops. All gone since 1965.

Another 1965 view of the shops on the west side of the High Street looking back to the bridge.

The police station, built in 1896, still in situ but used for residential purposes.

Leading west from the High Street is Market Meadow. Again, no trace of the old buildings but at least a bit of "meadow" has been retained.

The Black Boy PH. The building and those immediately opposite are still standing but the rest have gone as far as what is now the Pavillion Hotel (previously the Mary Rose) whose chimney can just be seen.

A smal parade, 90-96 High Street, opposite No 97, which have completely disappeard and is now part of the grassy area surrounding the River Cray.

The same parade from the south.  Clearly the buildings had seen better days.

With the exception of No. 97 (with the porch), all these shops have gone since 1965. The junction with Blacksmith's Lane behind the camera.
