Changes at Martin Street

An Appreciation of Thomas Peploe Wood by David Gleeson

Observations by pupils from Weston Road School
Pupils from Weston Road High School visited Martin Street to compare 19th Century Stafford to the Stafford of today. They were asked to study the scene from the same point of view as Thomas and Samuel Peploe Wood and look at why and how the street had evolved.

“I can see the church in both pictures but the rest of the buildings have changed because shops have opened in their places.” Matthew Liddell-Young

“Over time the buildings had to be updated. They have been bought and changed for different jobs or cafes or other things.” Jessica Maingay
