More about this scene

On the east side of the village, overlooking the Welland Valley, the church for the most part dates from the 13th and 14th centuries, including the tower and its broach spire. Ewan Christian, a rather dreary architect, rebuilt the spire in exact facsimile during his restoration work of 1864. A panelled Jacobean pulpit survives, and so does a somewhat eroded 14th-century monument.

Great Easton
I lived the first 22 years of my life in Great Easton amd it is a place that will remain with me forever.

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.
