Love Rushden

Two ‘ghost’ signs were temporarily uncovered in August 2021 at 113 High Street – does anyone have any memories of Wholefoods or The London Central Meat Company?

[Apologies that the photo is marred by the sticker for “opening soon” Doorstep Dolci, who turned out to be of no use whatsoever – despite being open for at least a couple of days]

Surprised to see the Rushden Hall Wisteria in flower for the second time this year – and in a drought year too! Also the colour seems a little deeper than the May flowering.

Has Josh been working some magic? I think we should be told 😂

The fact that cinemas hardly ever include the year alongside the dates on posters... somehow makes it more fun to guess which year this might have been!

I’m sure many of us have fond memories of the old United Counties buses, like these three at the “Lightstrung”...

A great photo courtesy of Rushden Museum Friends 👍🙏 – made even better by our added colour of course! 😂
