This was the western terminus of the route at the Bull Inn, Barming (which is behind the photographer). Remove the trolleybus and the overhead wires with their poles, and the view is virtually unchanged today. War memorial, corner shops, phone box, even the zebra crossing at the right are still to be seen in the current Local Live birds eye views.
