More about this scene

St Nicholas's Church was built at the abbey gates for lay abbey staff, tenants and workers, and for travellers to pray for safe onward journeys or who were about to cross the River Thames. It is basically a late Norman and early 13th-century building, but it was much changed in the 14th and 15th centuries, including the battlemented west tower; its interior is relatively plain, with a Jacobean pulpit and some decent monuments.

Our building had Canadians in the top flat, English in the middle and Japanese on ...see more

Queen's Manor Primary School, Fulham
I remember the school trip to the Isle of Wight May 19th to June 2nd 1961. I still have my notes and scarp book. I had a really great time and went back 2 years ago to have another look. The isle of Wight still lovely. I met up in 1973 with either Pat or Linda Long who worked in the child care at Charing Cross & Fulham Hospital when my father was there.

Genealogy & Research Images

Despite over 20 years’ work on the archive, these scans have still not been individually checked and may prove to be damaged, faded, or not of sufficient quality to ever be offered in our full product range. However, if you would particularly like to buy one of these please get in touch quoting the Frith negative number,(s) the town name and size of print you would like to buy. On receipt of your enquiry our archivist will check the scan and advise you if the quality is good enough.

What is an Album?

An album is a way to save a selection of Frith photos, maps and memories that are of interest to you.

Creating an Album enables you to make short lists and then make a final selection from the album. In particular it makes ordering things like calendars much easier - simply create an Album of the 12 photos you like and then use the Album when placng your order - our order process will give you this option.

You can create as many Albums as you want, so perhaps make one for your hometown, where you live now, where your parents live now etc.
