More about this scene

The Bishops of Rochester, who owned the manor of Bromley from 862 until 1845, maintained a palace here from the 10th century. The grounds became a park in the Victorian era, and more recently the 18th- century Old Palace has been enlarged to become part of the civic centre.

Lyons Corner House
I remember the coffee shop too. We always had to rush past as Mum couldn't bear the smell of fresh roasting coffee. We would go into Lyons and I would always have a sausage roll with my drink. Happy days.

Coffee Roasting And Size Five
I remember the fab coffee roasting machine in the high st when I was a kid. I was born in 1948. Even tte glass shop window was warm. There were sparks and smoke all the time it was wonderful. Mum took me there for tea and cakes when feeling flush. Waitresses all in uniform with little pinnies on. Oooh! I was in a group then called size five, we played all over the area quite a lot. From about 1964 to 1970 ish. Anyone remember size five??? Mike grieve

More about Image Optimisation

All our photos are printed as optimised versions of their originals, this process can take anything from 15 minutes to several hours. This ensures that the product you get shows the true quality that Frith photos are renowned for.

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.
