Thumbnail for West Street, Reading, looking northwards from St. Mary's Butts to Greyfriars Church, c. 1910. On the west side, on the corner of Oxford Road, is No. 23 (the Maypole Dairy), with the words "Maypole Corner" painted on the building. On the opposite corner, part of the Vine Hotel can be seen, and beyond, at No. 17 West Street, there is a sign, "Empire Shoe Sale." Various horse-drawn vehicles and cycles are in the area, controlled by a policeman on point duty. The carriageway is cobbled, with tram lines set in it. 1910-1919: scan of a postcard with caption "West Street Corner, Reading."
