Arlesey: High Street garage
Small independent fuel retailers find it difficult to compete against the oil giants and the supermarkets and the small garage here has lost its forecourt dispensing pumps some time ago.

Arlesey: The former Three Tuns
Only a little over four years on from Robin's Image and the pub has joined the remorseless and seemingly irreversible trend of closures. Even the building's Grade II Listed status has failed to save it. The English Heritage Listed Buildings website describes it thus:-
"18th Century. Timber framed construction with colourwashed roughcast render. Thatched roof, half-hipped to W end. 3-room plan, one storey and attics, gable end to road. Variety of casement windows, all small with glazing bars. Eyebrow dormer to N elevation. 20th Century porch to N elevation. Red brick chimney stacks, one to ridge, one to each gable end. Single storeyed addition adjoins to E gable end, weatherboarded and thatched, with casement windows."
The north elevation with the eyebrow dormer is this one.
Comparing the older image with this one the other obvious change is the erection of the bus shelter in the period since 2005.

The Three Tuns
Right on the edge of the square, The Three Tuns is one of two pubs in it. The buildings behind are new houses. This village has seen a lot of development in the last couple of years.

East Coast Main Line at Arlesey foot crossing
Standing on the up fast line of the East Coast Main Line to take a photograph on the same track as 125 mph trains heading towards King's Cross, it is necessary to have someone keeping a lookout. The up slow line is on the left and the down fast and down slow on the right. Some foot crossings on the ECML have red or green lights to indicate when a train is coming or when it is clear, but not this one though. A good look up and down the line is needed to see when it is safe to cross.

The house that we might have bought.
For a variety of reasons we didn't. This is typical of the houses in Arlesey. Note the light coloured brick. This is made from clay dug locally and turned into bricks by a (largely) italian immigrant workforce near to the village.
