National - Settle, Cumbria 26th September 1964
Here's this week's Thursday throwback, and another that has hugely benefited from a re-scan.
This garage has long since gone - but strangely the name of the shop that now occupies this site is called Car and Kitchen which seems a bit odd but is maybe in some small way paying some kind of reverence to it once having been a garage - or maybe it's a hardware store that sells motoring accessories. Easy to find other images of this place - plenty of historical shots for example here a Francis Frith image from 1955 showing the garage far left and the whole market place looking, if I'm honest, a bit grim!

Here's an even older picture on pinterest still showing the garage but way back in time now

Spottedlaurel has a nice shot from the early 80's showing that the garage had already gone
