This image is a Reference Print: it has not been shown on our website before as it has not been optimised and therefore may not meet the quality standards we require for use in our normal product range. However, we understand that this image could be potentially important for genealogical, local history or architectural research and so we are showing it on the website for on-line research only. The photo may be available to buy, but needs to be checked and optimised before you can place an order.

Why are these different? All 300,000 photographs in The Frith Collection have been scanned, but as the photos were taken over a 110 year period on a wide range of glass & film negatives, using different photographic processes, every image has to be checked and optimised, before we make a print for a customer.

My best friend was Janet King. She was such fun and had a great personality. We cycled everywhere in those days and I have very fond memories of Flatford and swimming at the bridge. I lived in Mistley but loved staying at Burnt Oak. I wonder if Janet is still alive. I worked for a few years at BX plastics in the office. Would appreciate a reply from anyone who knew Janet. I remember her uncle too..and her father returning from war best wishes Thelma nee Edwards
My aunt Jessie (King) lived in the house on the left of the picture from around 1920 to 1954. In 1954 she moved out and my uncle Sidney (Edwards) ( her brother) moved into the house and turned it into a little tea room come snack bar. It was very popular with the kids at that time who could spend a few pence on a bottle of pop and a packet of crisps. The house next to the tea room was a bakers, owned by Mr Stow.
