Taken Whit Sunday 1957, West Dyke Road, after the Races....... note the old wooded bridge over the Railway lines, how many of us played 'Dare' on that bridge, running over just as the old steam trains went underneath, smoke used to pour up through the gaps in the wooden bridge floor.
The crowds of people to be seen along West Dyke Road, before and after the races was amazing.
