Chiswick High Road 21 years on
Such a lot of change even since 1982 - a montage of images from then and now
One day in the autumn of 1982, I was puzzled when my friend - and then local resident - Fay Sweet insisted on taking photos of shop fronts along Chiswick High Road. "All this will soon be gone," she explained. Four years before the opening of Sainsbury's, at a time when the name Starbucks meant nothing, the main shopping street in W4 was a very different place.
