This week we take a look at some High Wycombe scenes from the 1960s.
This first picture, from January 1968, looks towards Little Market House, in the High Street, with All Saints Church in the background.
This part of the town centre is now partially pedestrianised, with the church still just visible over the tree.

This second picture, from January 1961, looks north from the junction with Desborough Road, of both sides of Desborough Avenue.
The streetscape looks very different today, with a mini double roundabout at the junction and the houses making way for shops and car garages.
