More about this scene

The bicycle was still a very important mode of transport when this photograph was taken. The brick-built buildings look as if they will last for another century at least. However, the huge Allied Flour Mill now stands on the site and very little of this scene remains.

Linge Family
My Grandfather, John William Linge, and my Great-Grandfather, John Linge, lived at Wilson's New Cottage, Althorne in 1881. I have no idea where this cottage was situated and wonder whether anyone could help in locating it, please.

Buying Sweets.
I used to walk here to buy sweets as a child... the shop looked just the same as the photo. In those days it was also the village post-office.

Home Memories.
I moved into these cottages with my family in 1935 and my parents were there until 1959. Originally it was a barn hence the name 'Barn Row' and was converted into cottages in 1836 as marked in the brickwork on the other side of the cottages. All the time my parents lived there, there was no sewerage and only a stand tap in the middle yard to serve all four cottages. But times have changed and the village has been renovated and one or two new houses have been built.

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.
