IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Pembroke Road, TORQUAY, TQ1 1NR

A view taken from a little further south along the road than Image, and looking more to the right. Ellacombe Green (with its bowling green) again appears above the chimney pots. Beyond is Princes Road. Bethel Terrace is the row of houses running behind the pine tree; the prominent central terrace above is on Pembroke Road. Terraces on Cavern Road and Pennsylvania Road rise above these, with grander buildings on Rosehill Road (which climbs to the left into Warberry Copse) and Warberry Road West further up the hill.

Some fresh colours on this terrace of eight houses on a short cul-de-sac off Image

Terraces line a steep street either side of the junction with Pembroke Road. In the foreground the road is Cavern Road; beyond the junction it becomes Warberry Road West.

Early morning sun on a terrace of houses along the stretch of Princes Road between the junctions with Victoria Road and Warberry Vale.

A view of the top of the street shown in Image, which looks in the reverse direction. On the left is the cul-de-sac shown in Image, and at the end is a T-junction with Hoxton Road.

Another view of Image Bowls and tennis still thrive in Torquay, but in this and other parks, their greens and courts have been turned into more flexible surfaces. In the background is Image

Seen from Alexandra Road, this narrow alley runs across the end of Alexandra Lane and crosses Princes Road (the safety barrier can perhaps be made out) before climbing to the rear of Cavern Road.

The former bowling green has been turned into an all-weather multi-use games area. On the left is the pavilion. "Ellacombe B.C. (est. 1928) and the Torquay Post Office B.C. (est. 1932) shared the Ellacombe Bowling Green in the centre of Torquay for many years until in 2000 it was decided that due to falling numbers in both clubs we should amalgamate. "Adopting the logo of the mythical bird the Phoenix, which arose from its own ashes the Victoria Bowling Club was born. We continued to use the Ellacombe Green until 2005 when we moved to our present site on the Torquay sea front in the lovely Abbey Gardens with panoramic views of Torbay. http://www.presswebdesigns.co.uk/victoriabowlingclubdevon/aboutus.php "

Behind the camera is the games area shown in Image "The ... children's playground was opened in July 1938" http://www.torbay.gov.uk/index/leisure/parks/parkareas/ellacombepark.htm . In the background is Stratheden Court, where Ellacombe Road meets the top of Market Street.

Another view of the new all-weather multi-use games area described in Image, with the photographer's shadow looming large.
