James Gray: The almost rural appearance of Carlton Terrace in 1916. jgc_38_001
2018: This road is completely different as all of the front gardens have been removed to make way for shops. The Victoria public house still occupies the corner to the left of the image, but the area is dominated by a large Aldi supermarket, which replaced the houses next to the wall on the left. Carlton Terrace is a busy road and it is difficult to take photos from the same spot. (Photographer: Jan Sinkfield)
James Gray: Another photograph of King Solomon’s house, 35 Carlton Terrace. Period unknown but thought to be about 1950. jgc_38_013
2018: The old house in the original image has been replaced by these rather dreary flats. The houses on the extreme left of the image have been demolished to widen Old Shoreham Road. This road junction is very busy with a complex crossing system and traffic builds up considerably. (Photographer: Jan Sinkfield)
