THEN & NOW: OLD VIEWS

These two images come from Radstock Museum, which has kindly given us permission to reproduce them. (click on them to enlarge)





The Mells Cross photo (credited to Nick Stickland) seems to be from the 60s or 70s, the panorama from much earlier. If anyone can shed light on either image, for instance when they were taken, or if you have any other old images of the shop you would like to share, please click on 'Comments' below and let us know.

There's another old photo here from c1950.

And here, from 1907.

And a couple of contemporary views from flickr.com, here, and here.
