The Safe, Basingstoke - 2 February 2020

03 Feb 2020 48
The Safe, 18 Winchester Street, Basingstoke describes itself as 'A place to be family' and offers a variety of drop-in and appointment services. Although indistinct in this photograph, the outline of the words 'National Provincial Bank' can be seen below the roof line. National Provincial Bank merged into National Westminster Bank as long ago as 1970 and I imagine the building has seen a number of uses since then. TZ70_P1010795R

Former Lloyds Bank, Basingstoke - 2 February 2020

03 Feb 2020 55
The branch of Lloyds Bank, 2 Winchester Road, Basingstoke (corner Church Street) closed on 7 January 2019. Unlike in many towns there remain in the immediate area a number of other bank branches. The rather splendid building has presumably been vacant since closure. TZ70_P1010796

Hunter 'WT720' - A New Life (10) - 6 May 2019

08 May 2019 161
Following its arrival and erection in Lime Tree Way, Basingstoke on 4 May 2019, work continued on 6 May around the Hawker Hunter F.51 formerly marked as WT720 and now in Iraqi Air Force colours as 349 (٣٤٩). I have chosen to maintain the 'WT720' reference in my titles so that viewers might more easily trace the recent history of this aircraft through the many photographs I have posted. The father of the owner of this aircraft flew Hunters in the Iraqi Air Force. 200_3_P1100748

Crossing Churchill Way (2) - 21 June 2018

23 Jun 2018 97
The architecture of much of Basingstoke can only be described as stark. Nowhere is this more evident than when viewing The Malls shopping centre from Churchill Way East and Church Street. The footbridge across Churchill Way is grimly utilitarian and the exterior of The Malls could be a prison or latter day fortress. TZ30_P1050121R
