Eastleigh CCS

Picked up this real photo postcard of Eastleigh CCS the other day.

 

Those familiar with Eastleigh will recognise the CCS on the Leigh Road Recreation Ground.

 

Matching the shadows of the gable ends, it looks like the first row of wooden huts are on what is now the car park to the side of the bingo hall.

The brick buildings on the right, latreens & bath house, are under Sainsbury's.

 

The large building in the middle, with the ridge at 90 degrees to the small huts, is the kitchen and just right of the (still existing) bandstand.

 

Regards

 

Alan.

Think I preferred the 'then' picture. The centre of Eastleigh is not a pretty place these days.
