Weymouth, Petersfield and Kirsty

All the following photos are from slides in an unusual square format so are certainly not taken by Malcolm. I suspect it must have been Rosemary’s camera and that she was the photographer for all these pictures.
Nan, Les, Vera and Olive.
The five photographs here come from the same batch suggesting another joint holiday somewhere. Photographs in the same batch show views of a cathedral with tall spire and pictures of Dad’s old Austin 1100 (blue estate version) which suggests they date from later than 1966. This is far later than the known Weymouth trip (he owned a Ford Anglia then) so unless there was a second Weymouth trip I’m wondering about Lyme Regis. A bit of detective works reveals that the cathedral is Salisbury.
The photographs above were taken, according to the scrap of paper attached to them, in July 1968 but the venue required some detective work. The clue is the dustbin which is painted P.U.D.C. which stands for Petersfield Urban District Council and Petersfield was one of Dad’s favourite local drives and there was a large duck pond on the edge of town.
Dated June 1970 when Kirsty would have been four months old. They were taken in the garden of 37 Aldershot Road in Fleet.
