This image is a Reference Print: it has not been shown on our website before as it has not been optimised and therefore may not meet the quality standards we require for use in our normal product range. However, we understand that this image could be potentially important for genealogical, local history or architectural research and so we are showing it on the website for on-line research only. The photo may be available to buy, but needs to be checked and optimised before you can place an order.

Why are these different? All 300,000 photographs in The Frith Collection have been scanned, but as the photos were taken over a 110 year period on a wide range of glass & film negatives, using different photographic processes, every image has to be checked and optimised, before we make a print for a customer.

I often went fishing and sometimes even swimming at the Brickyard pond which at the time was owned by Mr. Dearn, whose son Malcolm I went to school with. In addition to the pond there were many old workings that used to flood forming a network of waterways, many of which contained fish. I now reside in Southern California and have fond memories of the Charlwood area.
Does anyone know of Mayfields Farm, Lowfield Heath, Charlwood Road, in 1935? I have found out that my Dad's sister {Joan Addy, 18 months old} drowned in the fishpond, around the day of the King's silver jubilee.
