More about this scene

A view of the southeast side of Bridge Street. While many of the buildings on the right remain, several were pulled down in the 1980s and their sites now form part of a supermarket car park. On the credit side, however, the car park wall incorpo- rates excellent modern wrought iron sculptures, and lying as it does opposite the municipal offices, the car park looks like a town square.

2 Hall Place Cottages
I lived here in 1959 with my Parents and my older brother my sister Ann was born in this house. I do not remember living here as I was only 2 years old. I am tracing my family tree and I cannot find this cottage on Google maps. I think the name may have changed, is there anyone out there that can help me out to find this.

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.
