More about this scene

A church has been on this central site from AD 937. All Saints' parish church was restored in 1873 by Sir Gilbert Scott (he was also responsible for Doncaster's St George's church). The 180ft-high spire dominates the town, and looks down onto the heart of the shopping area. The churchyard contained 1800 graves; it was closed in 1854, with many of the stones being removed in 1932 and 1950 during the creation of All Saints' Square.

Smoking In The Air Raid Shelters
I have lots of memories of the High School, I was there from 1959 to 1966 and it would be great to hear from anyone who remembers me. My name then was Kathleen (Kath) Atkinson, though I am now Kate Condliffe. Looking at this website has set my memory going - it's amazing that I can remember things that happened over 50 years ago, but can't remember what I just came into the room to do!

Rotherham Clifton Park Childrens Paddling Pool C1955
I lived at Ecclesfield and I remember being taken to Cliton Park as a yearly treat aged 7. It must have been a Bank Holiday because the pool was full of kids and lots of parents sat around the edge on the steps. With it being round it was easy to get disorientated, it was scary when you looked up and your parents were not where you thought they should be. It was difficult to get ...see more

More about Image Optimisation

All our photos are printed as optimised versions of their originals, this process can take anything from 15 minutes to several hours. This ensures that the product you get shows the true quality that Frith photos are renowned for.

Example of image retouching:

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.
