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.

Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

I went to the school and lived in a home in Manaton, we went by coach, it seemed miles away. One of the teacher lived in one of the bungalows on the left just before the school. I have now moved to Devon and been back to see the school and the hall next door it was used for indoor games/gym.
I remember the Reverend Green used to come to North Bovey School and tel us some very interesting stories of his travels in Africa and other countries where he had travelled. Does anyone remember Miss Jones and Mrs Watton? I went to North Bovey School from 1958-1964. I loved North Bovey and its school, they sure have changed, times, haven't they? Nice to see the pictures of the old church, hope to visit soon. Lindsay Baldwin
