Description
The Second World War ended in Europe on 8 May 1945 and the British public wanted to celebrate peace after nearly six years of war. People held street parties, and had bonfires and fireworks on VE Day but the celebrations went on all summer. Buildings were decorated with flags, crests and bunting. A milk cart with churns on the back can be seen delivering milk to the station.
