This shot of Broad Street (now Broadway Avenue) looks toward The Square. It must have been taken before 1929 because of the presence of both the Post Office Hotel and C Smith Ltd - the former burnt down that year and the latter was purchased and renovated by The Times. The Regent Theatre now stands on the site of the Post Office Hotel.
