SOME great photographs from the Stroud area  feature in nostalgia section this week.

All of these photographs are taken with permission from the Facebook group Stroud Area Photographs and Cotswold Picture Postcards.

A lovely picture of the old Ebley Court Hotel in Westward Road is featured as well as an old picture of Westward Car Sales in 1966 which was shared with the group by Ross Smith.

Similarly David Fawkes shared a beautiful old picture of Engine 1453 at Brimscombe which will bring back memories for all steam buffs out there.

If you have any old pictures of Stroud or the surrounding district please email them to matthew.holmes@newsquest.co.uk
