I found this postcard in my late Aunt's photographs, not to sure of the date. I have not seen this one before.
When the trams were taken off in 1930 the top decks of the double deckers were sold off. My dad bought one and made a hen shed from it, and Uncle Harry had one fitted to a horse drawn lorry base and converted into a caravan!

I remember the ' chicken shed ' down the back Fred, never knew it was a tram top, thought it was some sort of railway carriage.
Lovely old pic. Amazing to think that, in those days, as the sign indicates, ALL traffic from the south of England went that way to the north...!!!!!!
