Just before these days Kent, like Surrey, were not in London, then of course English politicians started manipulating the electoral boundaries (without complain?) due to expansion, mostly by immigration, hence London buses etc

At the 5.51 mark we see a dark aubergine colour mini clubman sporting a full lenght webasto sun roof ,SUU 950N so this section dates this portion of the film between August 1st 1974 to july 75 , but I'd go with 1974.

Yesteryear where did it go

Worst birdwatching movie i ever see

Lovely old film, thank you for sharing

I love the Corgi Toys.

Empty roads , clean streets , no tons on the street . The GREAT BRITAIN that once was

Wonderful Film Great Music 🎶

Clarks Coaches to Bullerswood/ Bromley Tech Girls. Looks like the year our summer uniforms changed and we ditched the boaters.Great film, so many memories. I was a pupil from 69 to 74. Doesn’t feel all those years ago, pension this June though.

Where's dem white women at ❤❤❤🌰🍆🌰🐽🦨

The strident orchestral music is jarring and doesn't imbibe emotion.

1968 was the year Jim Morrison and the Doors toured England. To think that my favorite band was at the height of their popularity during this filming is quite interesting to me. Was hoping to see an advert of their shows. Or…something!

Just found this! What a treasure. My brother in law is a member of the Killick Family who had the estate agents on the corner opposite the Swan. Most of my youth was spent in and around West Wickham and walking miles through Spring Park Wiods and the surrounding commons. Before Stanton’s furniture shop (diametrically opposite the Swan) opened, it was John Surtees motorcycles. I used to spend hours staring dreaming at the beautiful bikes through their window as a small child. I remember my mother being ecstatic at Sainsbury’s opening in (I think 1963). What a time travel experience

Lovely piece of nostalgia, th so much!

Where is this. A London bus , and judging by the girls hemlines, id say mid sixties. Ok i see west wickham.

All the buses (the sunny day film?) have 1968 adverts on them and the bus at 7:36 has a poster for 'My Giddy Aunt' (RH side) that ran at The Strand June 20-Sept 21st 1968. With the newspaper headline about the Czech Crisis at 19:04 (Aug 1968) we can say for certain the bulk of this film is from Summer 1968.

The Cortina at 5:31 has a 'K' plate = Aug 1971+

Happy memories

Thanks for sharing really enjoyed it going to Parga Greece Tomorrow love it but don't think it's a Good Birding place

Would have been about 11 years old there remember Tesco opening it was a country at ease with itself made me feel sad

I found this video due to the music video “Still Waiting” by Jazz Emu being filmed there ua-cam.com/video/_ws0QtAiiXQ/v-deo.html

could not quite get the coach - Clarkes (of Anerley ?) Bedford VAL "C" reg but not see all clearly

Very little information. Beautiful places.

I'd have cursed him too!

Love the motors, all now classed as classic cars and at 14:02 a very rare Singer Hunter saloon, which would sport a horses bonnet mascot. Youngest age for it at that time would be 16 yrs old. As built from 1954 to 1956 , sorry about my useless information unless you are a classic car enthusiast. Cheers all.

What a beautiful video to watch!

Remember it well

Interested local history of West wickem

Remember it well

Great to watch this so many memories Lived in Grovsvenor rd down by the Wheatsheath pub !!

Nice and beautiful video. Great capture thanks for sharing such a lovely video.

When I met my husband in 1981, our shopping at that sainsbury was 15 quid a week

Some of the clips show mk3 Cortinas, launched 1970, and a Marina, launched 1971. I remember the Esso station, Ithink it went about 1971, or 72. Things were simpler, tidier back then. Suspect thats myFather i. his Humber estate at about 5.50.

Flamingoes stand on one leg, a) to prevent overexposure to the salty alkaline water and b) to preserve heat when in colder water.

Wonderful

1968.. it was shown once more on this evening’s London Live channel .

East London?

I enjoyed bird watching. I thought I'm there! Thankee for these feelings!

Scary to think that this was around the time that I was born! My parents formally moved to WW in 1967, so I have been sitting in a forlorn hope that they might just appear! The junction by 'The Swan' hasn't really changed that much. The front door on the library stayed the same throughout my childhood and beyond. Many happy memories of childhood rekindled....

Fascinating 😍

nice thks

Wonderful old archive cine film, It warms the cockles of my heart !

Thanks 😊 🫂 very good

Remember it well

4:18 you hear the Scops Owl. Great video!

Wow wonderful to see the nostalgia thanks for making and sharing. I remember when those beautiful old lamp posts were replaced with the modern metal poles. Such a shame 😭

Look at the dust men . long before recycling was thought of .. they took everything

Why did they have blinds half way across the windows
