Park Lane, Bewdley, Worcs
Park Lane makes a very steep ascent. Driving up this hill is not for the faint-hearted! The Road coming in on the left is Park Close. That coming in on the right is Orchard Rise, both of these are cul-de-sacs.

Welch Gate (lower end)
Welch Gate is a very old and winding road which climbs steeply from Bewdley's town centre to the point where it joins the road known as Winbrook. Welch Gate gets its name from the old tollgate which once stood on the route from Wales. This view is looking towards the town centre. The building on the left has what appears to be a bricked in window, which may have been done possibly in the 18th century when many windows were removed to avoid the "window tax" introduced in 1696 and not removed until early Victorian times.

The former Anchor Inn 7 Welch Gate
Many years ago this road was full of inns and public houses, but almost all are long gone. But it is still possible to see that No. 7 Welch Gate was once an inn, because the words Anchor Inn can be faintly seen between the first and second floor windows. The recently repainted building on the left rather shows up the fact that No. 7 hasn't been painted externally for some time. Unfortunately when it is done, its history will be less self-evident. Today the building is used as residential flats.

The former Anchor Inn 7 Welch Gate
This photograph gives a close view of the name Anchor Inn which can still be seen painted between the first and second floor windows of this building. In fact the name has been painted twice, at least, and they are not in alignment which makes things slightly confusing. Looking at this photograph there is also some smaller lettering below on the right. Here is a photograph of that:-
