Harry Dipple of Blandford brought in a Bournemouth Square picture taken from the Bournemouth Times.
It dates around 1945 and shows the bus terminus and three axle electric trolley buses mixing with early single and double decker petrol and diesel engined vehicles. Note top left of the picture a bomb has destroyed the building above the Hotel Empress and at the bottom of Richmond Hill there is a policeman with white gloves directing the traffic.
Do you have an old picture to share with us?
