Iain, I lived in Ashford and happened to be visiting Shepperton. Upon seeing this I jumped on my motor bike and shot home to grab my camera!
I loved the irony of a travel agent right next to this ungainly monster! (see other photo)
Good to see one of my photos has stirred up old memories.
Cheers, Mick.
Taken at Medulin Airfield, south east of Pula, this mean machine was waiting to take tourists on a flight over the city for about £10 each. Sadly a minimum of 8 passengers was required and I was on my own....shucks!
Blacksmiths Bridge, built of red bricks in 1792 and extensively restored in 1976 now only carries a footpath.
The tank traps are part of Great Britain’s final defence lines, built to repel the threatened German invasion in 1940/1.
Built in 1822 this is the only surviving example of a chain of towers between London and Portsmouth which enabled messages to be sent from the Admiralty to the Fleet in around 15 minutes.
Two mechanical arms operating from within the pole on the top of the tower were operated to send communications using semaphore to the next tower in the chain.

I would imagine the train bookings at Ian Allan Travel Agents went down this day!!
Thanks for your reply Mick. I meanwhile corrected the mistake.
