But these photos show London Road as not everyone will remember it, charting the changes along the historic thoroughfare from the early 60s to the late 90s.
You can see how the street has evolved over those four decades, including the many shops, pubs and restaurants which have come and gone, and the few that have stood the test of time.
A pub that is now a flooring shop, a bank building later used to sell fireworks, and a longstanding tailor’s that became a burger joint are just some of the notable businesses from yesteryear featured in this retro photo gallery.
This trip down memory lane shows how, amid all the changes, London Road has always maintained a strong independent vibe.
As well as the businesses themselves, these nostalgic images show several of the shopkeepers who were well-known characters and helped London Road prosper over the years.
How many of these pubs, shops and restaurants, and the people who ran them, do you remember?
