Black and White postcard of St Michael's and all Angels' Church.
Unusual view taken from (then) fields to the right of Mawby's Lane.
No date but must be pre-1960s as houses to right of Mawby's Lane and Hillside missing.
Building background right is probably Parker's farm (which was between The Lakes and Measham Rd). This was sold in the late 1960s and demolished to make way for St Michael's Drive.
