16 more photos to take you back to Portsmouth in 1975

We are back with the third part of our look back at what Portsmouth was like in 1975.

These photos include the old News office and newsagents at Lake Road which I’m sure many of you used to visit, the actor David Niven reading a copy of the Hampshire Telegraph (which was produced by the owners of The News), the Still and West pub, the M275 as it was then and many more.

Do you recognise any of the people and places in these photos?

Make sure you check out Part 1 and Part 2 of our 1975 galleries as well.
