A fascinating photo of the High Street in Christchurch looking towards Church Street showing the tram, with the tram lines installed in 1905. The photo was taken around 1910 and featured on the left-hand side is Tuckers which was the longest established shop in Christchurch which opened in 1790 and closed in 1958.
