More about this scene
The Highways Department has made a fine job of the flowerbeds on this roundabout at the North End of Northallerton, the busy little town on the River Wiske on the western edge of the North York Moors. In the background on the left is All Saints' parish church, a stately building restored in 1884, but featuring a fine 15th-century tower.

My grandmother lived in South Parade, opposite the Atkinson's house already mentioned elsewhere. Before the Court House was built (by Tom Willoughby, I believe) it was possible to walk from L'Espec Street, diagonally across the field it was subsequently built on, to the far end ...see more
I was born in Northallerton in 1952. My father was a cousin of the Smirthwaites and therefore worked in the garage that was once where Argos now stands.
