Title
The declaration of VE Day 8th June 1945 - DPC00519
Description
The townspeople looking very serious as they massed at the Town Hall to hear the declaration of VE Day. Presumably their expressions were of joy moments later when the impact of the news had been absorbed. The street scene is little changed today apart from the cleanliness of the buildings.
