Looking thru the curve at the end of the pic there is a vehicle travelling north i'm thinkin he wouldn't be far from the little roundabout at the top of the pinch coming up off the windsor bridge is my guess how good is that pic the pavement looks new very modern for the time :)

Brilliant photos werkhorse, those old Pommie trucks would have been hard work, but they got the job done. The blue Albion HD53 with the drums on the semi is a neat looking old truck.-Hamish Petrie
