As for the boats, someone told me that the sailing boats were wherries but I thought that they were bigger. Perhaps you could leave a comment and let me know your thoughts.
With this picture of the Rose & Crown Hotel I am more certain as I have found it in Google Maps Streetview. It is in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire and has hardly changed since this was taken in 1964.
Finally I have a photo that tells me where it was taken, Olney in Buckinghamshire. This is a view of Olney Station on the Northampton – Olney – Bedford LMS Line. It was taken in 1961.
You can see this very picture on the Olney and District Historical Society website where Mike Neale is using it to help illustrate an article by his father, Ivor, about the railway line.
