An aerial view of Birzebbuga period c1952. Going by the shadows it seems this photo was taken early in the morning. At left the Claridge Hotel can be seen, the Government School by the corner of Zebra Street was still there, later replaced by the Sea Breeze Hotel. The place that was called 'The Villa' nowadays called 'Cherries'can be seen and many trees around the building. No TV antennas in sight as TV was still a few years away. Note, not a square inch of sand can be seen in the Bay. This is a lovely picture of Birzebbuga.
