More about this scene

Mount Terrace (left) was the first row of houses to be built next to the Mount. Like London Street, Bold Street was envisaged as a tree-lined boulevard; in later years the trees had to be pollarded. Its name came from Peter Hesketh's uncle, Bold Fleetwood Hesketh. As time went on, Peter, the founder of the town, assumed the additional name of Fleetwood. By this time the Mount had been grassed over and flower beds planted.

Fleetwood 1930's Mrs Mcaffeys Sweet Shop
Does anyone remember a Mcaffeys (not sure of spelling) sweet shop in Fleetwood in the 1930's. The daughter (Miss Mcaffey) was a teacher at St Wulstans infant/primary school in the mid 1930's. I am trying to trace what street it was on as my Dad was trying to remember.

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.
