The Arcade, Bedford
Looking towards the High Street from the Harpur Street end. The Arcade doesn't run straight - the Harpur Street end is at an angle to the rest, and the design suggests it was a later addition, or was perhaps an open passage that was covered over.

St Loyes Street, Bedford
With the BT offices on the right (known as Telephone House when my father worked there in the 1950's and 60's).
See the Harpur Street side of the building Image
During the 1960's the newer part of the building was being constructed with a tower crane. The crane was being extended or altered, when it collapsed onto the roof at the top of the picture, just above the room where my father worked. Fortunately it was Sunday, so the offices were empty. The road was closed for a few days while they cleared up the mess.
