West Street Garage, near the junction of West Street with Pound Row, Warminster. (Pound Row in the background). I took the photograph in 1986. The garage building was originally one of the town’s many malthouses and would have had two floors. My photo shows six used cars on the sloping forecourt. The garage was later demolished and some of the houses of West Street Place were built on the site.
