Waiting at the Travellers Call


The Travellers Call was a public house on Joel Lane just above Slateacre.

Who they are and what all these people were waiting here for some 100 years ago, I cannot say.

Neither do I know when the pub was converted to a private residence.

Waiting is the CDPB theme for today; click here to view thumbnails for all participants.

  2. I love old photographs of people like this, Gerald. I gather from your text that today that same building is a private residence. Do you have any photographs of it?

    It would appear that all of these people (overwhelmingly male) are well of and middle class.

    Good Theme Day post.
