The Plantations

Well not just for the 1930's but for twenty years after as well.  Memories come flooding back - not just for this picture but for Wigan itself.  I was born there in 1931 - in my grandparents home 38, Dicconson Street - a section no ...Read more

I Remember

I have lived in Sherborne all my life from 1936 up until now and I hope to live a few more years yet. I remember the old turbine working at the river. A Fred Taylor looked after it to make electricity for Sherborne House ...Read more

Caption For Cambridge, St John's College Chapel Tower C1955

The extension to Trinity College library is well hidden behind the willows, which also provide shade for the punters on this busy stretch of the river.

Caption For York, Coney Street 1909

Bicycles appear to be a popular mode of transport for the ladies.

Caption For Scarborough, The Bay C1885

The buildings in the foreground are part of the recently completed Spa complex. The tide is clearly well out, and bathing machines are still in evidence.

Caption For Scarborough, The Spa And Sands 1890

Much of the building work along Foreshore Road that created the holiday resort is now completed.

Caption For Eton, Eton Schoolboys In The High Street 1906

With their top hats and stiff collars, Eton scholars have been an integral part of daily life in Eton since the College was founded by Henry VI in 1440.

Caption For Teversham, High Street C1965

Peering over the thatched roof is the battlemented octagon of the village church, rebuilt after two collapses in the 18th century.

Caption For Cockington Village, Court Cottage 1889

Despite the throng of tourists on summer afternoons, Cockington retains its old-world charm with its picturesque thatched cottages, bee-haunted gardens, lovely old church and modest stately home.

Caption For Carisbrooke, Castle Hill 1908

Note the early appearance of double yellow lines prohibiting car parking.

Caption For South Littleton, Main Street C1955

Today the three villages of South, Middle and North Littleton all virtually run into each other.

Caption For Slough, High Street 1950

Slough dates back to the 12th century, when it was a hamlet on the London to Bath road. The settlement later spread to the neighbouring parish of Stoke Poges.

Caption For Skelton, The Castle Gardens C1965

This view shows part of the original castle moat, which was drained in 1862. At that time the rose garden was created, which lies within this beautiful woodland setting.

Caption For Llansamlet, Heol Las 1938

In its heyday, Swansea's industrial catchment was vast, easily encompassing the little village of Llansamlet. Overlooking the Tawe Valley, it grew thanks to its tin-plate and spelter works.

Caption For Somersham, The Cross C1955

This view of the High Street at the Cross shows the war memorial (right). The Express Parcels Service is advertised next to the 18th-century Rose and Crown (left).

Caption For Great Shelford, The Village 1914

Peering over the thatched roof is the battlemented octagon of the village church, rebuilt after two collapses in the 18th century.

Caption For Ipswich, The Walk C1955

This attractive pedestrian precinct is just off Tavern Street. Although the feel is Tudor, the straightness of the lines says otherwise. The Walk was actually built in the 1930s.

Caption For Bowdon, The Village And The Church 1913

With the opening of the railway in 1849, Bowdon soon became a popular residential area for wealthy Mancunians; the area around the church was particularly favoured during the 1850s.

Caption For Brading, High Street C1969

Note the early appearance of double yellow lines prohibiting car parking.

Caption For West Kirby, The Memorial C1965

The view from the top of Grange Hill over the Dee Estuary on a summer's day can be quite breathtaking. What more fitting site for the town's war memorial?

Caption For March, High Street C1955

The photographer was probably standing outside the old school, now the home of the March & District Museum.

Caption For Eccleston, The Ferry C1965

Many a year has passed since Mrs Gillam ran a small general shop in the village, stocking all manner of things from mops and buckets to sugar and sweets.

Caption For Boscombe, Looking East 1913

Visitors can walk in the footsteps of Shelley, Lord Tennyson and Robert Louis Stevenson.

Caption For Boscombe, Boscombe Chine Gardens 1931

Enjoyable seaside holiday activities never change, for the greatest joys of such a vacation are always the simplest. Here children paddle and play with toy boats in Boscombe's park.

Caption For Tibberton, Main Road C1960

During the latter half of the 20th century, villages such as Tibberton became favoured places to live for people working in neighbouring cities. New buildings appeared for commuting residents.

Caption For Horning, The Old Wind Pump 1902

The low-lying marshes of the Broads were drained by windpumps until the 1940s, when electric pumps took over.
