Flashback to years gone by
THIS week’s Flashback photograph was brought in by Jean Cockerill who lives in Daventry. The picture is from a postcard and Mrs Cockerill believes the scene is of Brook Street in the town. Unfortunately, she is unable to name any of those featured in the photograph, but the vehicle on the left of the picture is from the Daventry Autocar Company in Sheaf Street.
