An instantly recognisable scene in Peterborough city centre - the footbridge crossing Bourges Boulevard.
The photo was taken in 1980 and in the four decades that have passed things have changed – especially the amount of traffic.
While the Great Northern Hotel remains, although closed, the buildings to the right have been replaced by a Waitrose supermarket.
There are more changes on the way with the proposed Station Quarter development in coming years.
