More about this scene

Two ramblers enjoy the shade cast by the riverside trees as they walk towards Hayfield along the Kinder Road, which leads towards Kinder Scout. This was the route taken in 1932 by the ramblers on the infamous Kinder Scout Mass Trespass, after which five were imprisoned. The Mass Trespass, organised to deliberately publicise the situation where ramblers were excluded from large areas of mountain and moorland by a few grouse-shooting landlords, became an important catalyst for the National Parks and access to the countryside movement.

It cost 2/6d old money, or 25 pence in new money, a day to go there ...see more

Park Hall
I was born in Hayfield in 1933 and lived there until 1947 when we moved to Hadfield. My parents were friends of the people who owned and built Park Hall swimming pool and we 4 children all learned to swim there in the icy water. It was always a private pool but became open to members who paid a fee to join.I remember it so well - we used to go there direct from school all summer and in the holidays and it is one of my many ...see more

Happy Days
I can remember swimming here as a child. It was very beautiful and tranquil. It was also unique. I have tried to explain to my daughter what it was like and found your picture on the web site. It is sad also to see photos of it in a disused state. There will never be such a nice place near us like this one. Can anyone tell us the history of this place and who owned it? I learned to swim with my dad in the junior ...see more

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.
