Shopping parades change rapidly, and some of the shops here in 1968 have vanished not just locally but nationally - Mac Fisheries being an example. The National Provincial Bank merged with the Westminster Bank to become Natwest - and the branch seen here at the end is now an insurance office. Sainsbury's have gone from here also. The RT bus seen is in green London Country livery on Route 414, a very long one from Horsham to West Croydon via Dorking, Reigate and Redhill.
