Nostalgic memories of Denton's local history

Share your own memories of Denton and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

Denton School Co. Durham 1846 I have my Great, Great Grandfathers maths exercise book. On the preface it says Jacop Graingers book Denton School July 8th 1846. The first half of the book is Practical Geometry with the second half Mensuration of Superfices. The quality of the writing and the various problems are astounding. The Grainger family that included my mother lived at Low Walworth not far from Denton. I can place some pictures if I can figure how. David Strachan - Whitley Bay
