Terrace Road, Bournemouth, Dorset
The western end of Terrace Road, probably from the rear window of a house in Upper Terrace Road. It shows numbers 26 and 24 with the wall-trained shrub on the left. To the right are 22, 20, and 18, and the dark chimney breast of the Fox Inn (16 off right).In the middle distance are the tops of buildings in Commercial Road: the turret of W Mate & Sons, printers of Bournemouth Visitors' Directory (with "Directory Office" on the roof) at number 62; W H Okey (later Bealesons) and the Prince of Wales Hotel (showing Eldridge Pope on the gable end); and the dark steep gables of Tower Buildings (in the centre), on the corner of Orchard Street, occupied by Daniel Drake, cabinet maker and shopfitter. Richmond Hill is visible on the right.
Uncredited postcard very much in the style of George Whitfield Cosser (1876-1918), photographer, of Southampton.
