Sefton Road Roundabout, 1955

The roundabout at the junction of Sefton and Hawthorn Roads in 1955. Not the best quality image but it has some interesting items. Note the old gas lamp and the old 'keep left' signs still in position on the island, the pre-fabs on the far corner, these lasted until at least the 1970's, The Regal cinema can be seen in the distance. I am no expert on old cars but I think this may have been a Morris Oxford. Another view Image]
