It’s nice to see my deductions confirmed by the old photos though I’m a bit annoyed with myself for not spotting the (now obvious) matches in the half-timber pattern etc. in the large Victorian house which can also be seen on Google Street View.

Well done, everyone. Seal was one of the places I considered yesterday, but I obviously missed the photos that clinched it. Streetview let me down too - the antique shop has had its weatherboarding removed, and the barn on the opposite corner is no more.
