The news of the closure of the News of the World reminded me wistfully of this picture of a boarded-up shop awaiting demolition, taken for a college project back in 1969. It was, I recall in Amersham Vale though after 42 years I cannot be absolutely sure of its precise location. An innocent age long before 'phone hacking!
