There are half a dozen or so people watching the aeroplane, probably the most exciting event of the day in the rather spartan "Holiday Camp".

A group of four in the garden, an individual in the shadow of the factory and at least one of the group near the cemetery entrance are having a good look.

No doubt where these two are looking. I would have been more interested in the airship and the rather splendid cars.

Plenty of candidates in this photo, especially among the road repair gang. Two people are crossing the road in front of the hotel and appear to be looking up, as does the figure in the upstairs window.

A chap ,bottom centre, has been distracted from closely studying a lamp post. A couple of small groups look up rather dejectedly, perhaps they are unemployed.

A lorry driver doing something to his trailer finds time to glance up.

Plenty of time to stand and stare when you are that far off of the ground and the foreman is hopefully in his office.

(you will need plenty of zoom to see him).

Who wouldn't rather look at an aircraft than work in a smelly old shed full of chickens?

Just a week after his epic flight,all eyes are on Charles Lindbergh. I'll bet that his eyes were looking for a clear spot to land on.

Of the five people on the pavement near the Sutton & Co lorry, four are looking up at the aircraft. The fifth one has his back to us and appears deep in thought. I wonder if the little mobile stall, or possibly a barrel organ,is his?

Three gardeners interrupted from their work to stand and stare. One man and two boys. Are they using an early mower, or maybe its some sort of scarifier?
