Bedford Bus Station
Full of United Counties buses in National Bus Company leaf green livery. Approaching the camera is 756, on route to Stewartby. It is a Bristol VR with ECW bodywork. This is an early version, later versions had a curved windscreen. Behind is a multi-storey car park. Spring must have been a bit late that year, the trees are only just starting to come into leaf.

Bedford bus station: rear entrance
Several contributors have submitted photos of buses here, but this is the rear of the bus station building on Allhallows. There are retail units on the ground floor and mostly vacant-looking offices above.

Top floor, Allhallows Car Park, Bedford
I was surprised to find the car park was not full on a Friday afternoon. The lowest 3 or 4 floors were quite full, the upper floors had some cars, but there were no cars on floors 9 & 10, apart from this one.
The building to the left is the BT building on St Loyes Street (originally known as Telephone House).

Bedford bus station, with the infamous X5 bus in the foreground
The X5 is a truly dire bus service between Oxford and Cambridge. It takes over 3 hours (often considerably over) and is prone to frequent breakdowns and sewage leakages. To be avoided at (almost) all costs!

Bedford Bus Station
Built in the 1960's when it was mostly filled with green United Counties buses. It replaced a much smaller bus station on The Broadway opposite the end of Foster Hill Road.

Plane trees by Allhallows Car Park, Bedford
In the 1960's, a row of saplings was planted along the pavement between Allhallows Car Park and the Bus Station. These are now tall plane trees, above floor 10.
A recent study looked at the oldest London Planes in London, and suggested that they have not yet reach maturity and could grow taller, even though they are more than 200 years old.
