The White Hart, Acton
This Truman, Hanbury, Buxton public house was showing once again its original tiles proclaiming its owners and the name above the bar windows as it underwent renovation. In recent times it had been The Redback Tavern - a music venue with strong Antipodean connections. The venue closed in February 2013 after the Police approached Ealing Council to review the licence. At the time that this photograph was taken renovation was almost complete and the pub was due to reopen as The Aeronaut.

The pub in the middle distance, with its Truman, Hanbury and Buxton plaque high on the side, spent some time in the early 1990s called The Gin Palace, but is now called The Aeronaut.

Acton Telephone Exchange (2)
This photo of the TE is taken in Barlow Road W3 9LJ, near the junction with Lexden Road. It used to have ACOrn numbers until the late 1960s, but then had 01-992, 993 xxxx numbers. These were changed to 0208 numbers during the year 2000, and 0208-752,896,992 and 993 xxxx numbers are now provided by this TE. A KX200 telephone kiosk can be seen to the left of the photo, although its payphone has been taken out which probably means that the kiosk itself will be removed before long.

Shops at the end of High Street, Acton
These were derelict for many years and one day returned to normal use like magic, completely unchanged apart from being cleaned up.
