More about this scene

By the beginning of the 11th century the parish was doing well enough to support five churches and two chapels. Then disaster struck. In 1010 Danish raiders attacked and all but destroyed the place. Eccleshall itself was left in ruins. It was not until 1090 that the old church was rebuilt and dedicated to Holy Trinity. The town looks prosperous enough in this photograph.

They had one of around 130 branches in Stafford Street and it was my first experience of working in the farming community as I had previously been in the motor trade. I remember what a really friendly and helpful crowd they were, ...see more

My Life There
I remember the days when I lived on a farm that was owned by Mark Carter from Eccleshall Castle. I had so much fun living in Eccleshall that I didn't want to move when the farm was sold. I had loads of friends and good memories, I remember when all the children were given a Silver Jubilee coin at school, the walks to the church from Lonsdale School, and to the common at the top of the junction of Kerry Lane and we ...see more

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.
