The grand new Post Office and Telegraph Exchange is prominent on the west side of the High Street south of the Big Bridge in the 'then' photograph taken in about 1920. Completed in about 1915, the building is now home to Wetherspoons Humphrey Bean pub, named after a Victorian proprietor of the We Three Loggerheads which occupied the same site until it was pulled down in 1903 for road widening. The modern-looking frontage to Hall's Garage was replaced in the 1930s with today's unsightly version.
