| Full Description: A view along tree-lined Mackenzie Street looking south towards Slough High Street. Mackenzie Street was named in honour of Major Edward Mackenzie, a partner of the railway contractor, Thomas Brassey. The Major had given £14,000 to the British Orphan Asylum to buy the old Railway Hotel and convert it into a suitable home. Mackenzie Street ran from Slough High Street to Slough railway station. In the 1960s it was incorporated into the Queensmere Shopping Centre. There are several parked cars in view and a bus is turning left into the High Street but an entrance to the yard of farrier and blacksmith A. Armstrong & Son can still be seen on the left. Eastman & Son, dyers and cleaners, occupied No. 5a Mackenzie Street on the west side of the street. Across the street, a sign can be seen for Herbert Hewett, tailor, at No. 4, who advertises 'tropical suitings'. Lipton's grocery shop, at 60 High Street, is visible to the right of the lamp standard at the end of Mackenzie Street. Next door at No. 62 was the bakers Farrow & Collins.
This postcard is a reissue by the Berkshire County Library of an earlier postcard, and has 'c 1930' as the date of the image printed on the front. |
