Gift Shops In The Strand 1970s
I spent every Summer in Saundersfoot from the age of 6 to 15! My Uncle owned the garage at the bottom of the arches in Tenby, and I had great fun exploring. I am trying to remember the name of a lovely little gift ...Read more

How well I remember the camp fires at Buckmore Park although the pictures shown were taken a liitle more than 10 years after I went there. It was there we sang songs and shanties and the one that stuck in my mind the most was Ging ...Read more

Girls' Brigade Camp
During the 1960s' we frequently spent our summer camp in Great Durnford; happy days! I remember the local church had a big book chained to a lectern, but it was not a Bible, and there were what looked like shuttlecocks ...Read more

Glad To Be Gone!
I don't have many good memories of Southall. My family lived in Norwood Green when I was born in 1947 and we moved to 31 North Avenue when I was five. We had a street party for the Coronation and my father told me that it was my ...Read more

I was born in 1954 at 261, Uttoxeter Road, which was where the fire station is now. My memories are of a magical childhood in Normacot, until we were rehoused in Meir in 1970. Some of the places I remember with much fondness ...Read more

When I was working for Nat West Bank in the 70s I used to travel on the train from Kenley Station every day to go up to Caterham and back. The up line terminates there while the downline goes via Purley to East Croydon and London, and ...Read more

Good (Great) Old Days
I was born at The Four Lane Ends but really the only thing which I remember about that is the day we moved to South Market Street. Since then (about '46) I have always been proud to refer to myself as being amongst the ...Read more

This was an era when every village had its school - now of course, much consolidation has taken place.
This photograph shows the graceful architecture of Maidenhead Bridge, distinguished by its elegant arches, striking stonework and fine balustrade.
Leather working still goes on in the town but on a much smaller scale. Workshops are hidden behind the main streets and often people don't even know they are there.
In that year much of the town centre was destroyed by fire.
In 1960 Ryhope was still very much a pit village, with its own colliery. In 1967 Ryhope, along with Silksworth, East Herrington, South Hylton, and Castletown, was incorporated into Sunderland.
The roads around Parkstone are much busier these days, encouraging journeys on foot or using public transport.
Taken nearer to the town, this view shows the strong Scottish influence in much of Bangor's architecture. Two girls in pinafores watch the passers-by from the bench in the foreground.
The narrow arched bridge was built in 1727 and stands above the battleground. The later bridge now carries the railway.
The five-arch bridge dates from the 13th century, although it has been widened and improved down the years.
It is a picturesque and much-photographed mill which is now conserved as a landmark.
The photographer earns much attention from the locals.
This general view shows the street much as it is today - distinguished by its striking Georgian buildings.

The interior of St Peter and St Paul's church is much the same, although sadly, in my opinion, the 'God Is Love' script has been painted out. Notice, also, the beautifully carved pulpit.
In the roof is one tie- beam on arched braces with traceried spandrels, probably also supporting the lenten veil. Side walls have lancets.
We are looking down Penrith's main shopping street.The scene has not changed much since Victorian days, except for the fact that the horses have by now disappeared and have been replaced by motor vehicles
Sketty was once very much in the countryside, but Swansea's urban sprawl has long since subsumed it.
However, much else in this view has gone.
Note that both road and footpath surfaces leave much to be desired.
There is much more activity, with horse- drawn carriages and children playing in the wide road.
St Michael's at Thorn was destroyed by bombs, so this is very much an archive photograph.
Llanelli is still very much alive, and Town Hall Square is laid out in a most symmetrical and pleasing manner. It possesses a rather grand neo-Jacobean Town Hall with a highly decorative clock tower.
A walking tour of its main streets and thoroughfares reveals much of architectural interest - particularly in the vicinity of Queen Victoria Street.
This stately five-arched structure now carries the Monsal Trail; and despite John Ruskins outbursts when it was built, it is now a protected structure.
