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.

BT Offices, Harpur Street, Bedford
When I was growing up in the 1950's and 60's, this was known as Telephone House, and the exchange was in the ground floor. I used to pass it regularly going to school and can remember the sound of all the electro-mechanical switches clicking round as numbers were selected. (Officially known as Strowger switches, I think they were called Strowger bars locally. See Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strowger_switch ).
