More about this scene

There was a church in Holt by 1086, the year of the Domesday Book. The present church is quite small in comparison to the more prosperous churches of Cley and Blakeney; the 14th-century rebuilding was completed to the instructions of Sir William de Nerford and his wife Petronilla, owners of one of the local manors. Originally the church had a spire. The restorations carried out in the last hundred years have left a rather ordinary-looking building.

Holt And Salthouse Memories
I was stationed at West Beckham next to Bodham on the road to Holt. I have lovely memories of a lovely place and friendly folk, at least the girls were. They said there was a shortage of men in Norfolk, I think they were trying to get hitched tom someone out of the area. I know some RAF mates got married and are still happy, so I think it was the happy go lucky nature of the younger generation. ...see more

Late 1880-90? my great grandfather was a teacher at Gresham School. We would love to know when he taught there and where he lived. Thank you for the pictures, most interesting.

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.
