Shefford, seen from the air
On the downwind leg to Rwy26 at Luton airport. Thanks to John Webb for pointing out that the distinctive line running from top to bottom of the image is the line of the former Midland Railway from Leicester through Bedford to Hitchin. It was opened in 1857, but became a secondary line after the opening of the direct route in 1868 from Bedford to St Pancras, and was closed in 1962.

Victorian houses, Clifton Road, Shefford
The stone on the front appears to give a date of 1886. The stone has not weathered well, and the name of the building is hard to make out - Mount something. The houses are narrow, but there are basements.

Old school on Clifton Road, Shefford?
Above the garage door just to the left of the tall building is a stone inscribed 'Day School 1856'. All these buildings appear to be in place on a map surveyed 1881, but there is no indication of a school here, and the row to the left was apparently divided up into separate dwellings, as now. Possibly the former school built about 1870 further down the road supplanted it. The house on the right is called Dorset Lodge.

67 - 71 (odds) Clifton Road, Shefford
Three houses noticeably grander than the cottages to either side. Undated, but present on a map of 1881, when the wider house at the right had a through passage under in place of the window to the right of the door, which explains the rather different brickwork here.
