More about this scene

This wide High Street has altered little over the years, although the proprietors of many of the shops have changed. The octagonal clock tower was added to St Mary's School in 1877 in memory of Laban Sweeting - the building has now been adapted for living accommodation. Over the top of the windows of the second building on the left are the words 'Standard Tea Warehouse', its former use.

We moved to Southminster, Whitby Road and lived there till 1980 when we came to Burnham, where I live now. On 12th March 2008, I lost Glad so since then and now, live alone. I worked at St Peters School for seven years, and on building sites in Maldon & Southend. Coming from Brentwood - where I have added to my stories, still plenty to tell.

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.
