Dino-Van
Not necessarily to do with Hitchin per se, but it was passing through it and it was a photographic opportunity not to be missed. It was an unusual van design and some thought had gone in to it and it wasn’t the usual dull, plain or un-imaginative thing that is usually sported on vans up and down the length and breadth of the British Isles. More please.
Set in Stone
The Vermiculated Stonework on Bucklesbury has some interesting letters and numbers incised in to them. Click on the above photograph for a larger view. The Letters W A can clearly be seen and the date 1867 (1857?) too. The combination are obviously the architect’s initials and the date of the facade of the building; the frontage being newer than the rest of the building. (Thank you to Alexander Palfreman-Brown for this previously unspotted gem)
