Anna Valley Motors Ltd, Castle Street, Salisbury, Wiltshire 1955

Built in Renaissance style to be in keeping with its surroundings in the fine old city of Salisbury. You wouldn't get such considerations these days. Anna Valley Motors had a number of outlets in the Wiltshire region - a book was even produced charting their first sixty years of history but sadly it is currently unavailable. From my friend Ian Byrne who also gave me the location " The garage was demolished in 1987 and replaced by the Friends Life office seen in this 2009 Streetview shot. But going forward to the present day and that building has also now been demolished and is being replaced by McCarthy and Stone flats." www.google.com/maps/@51.0718248,-1.7962168,3a,75y,39.64h,... Ian also linked me to a photo that shows the garage in 1978 just before it was demolished which you can see here www.flickr.com/photos/129956230@N04/15999242552?fbclid=Iw...
