More about this scene

Surbiton Common was the scene of one of the last episodes of the English Civil War in 1648. The war was but all over when a Surrey-led rebellion of Royalists, with many recruited from Kingston, were attacked by Parliamentary forces on the common. Lord Francis Villiers, younger brother of the Duke of Buckingham, was killed in the skirmish. Villiers Road and King Charles Road were named after this battle.

Mount Nelson

My mother was born there in 1904 and then the family moved to a new house( around 1935 I believe) in Woodlands Rd, Surbiton. During the lst World War I stayed for 4 years with my grandparents as it was safer than being in London where my parents were. Actually Surbiton wasn't all ...see more

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.
