Nostalgic memories of Kirkby Thore's local history

Share your own memories of Kirkby Thore 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.

Grahams Of Kirkby Thore

Not a memory butI have salvaged (in Sussex) an old photo of : "21st birthday of Ginnie Graham (Mrs Myers) August 19th 1903" Also written on the back is "Mrs Graham Kirby Thore" 28 members of the family, including lots of little boys, in front of a substantial white house. I would love to reunite the photo with their descendents. Chris Slater

The Bridge Inn

My mother, Joyce Hogg, whose grandparents were Egglestone of Culgaith, used to tell us that her relatives, two aunts, used to run the Bridge Inn at Kirkby Thore in the 30's, 40's or 50's. Unfortunately I do not know their names or surnames. Can anyone help me with my family history? Other family names are Tallentyre and Jennings, so this may be useful to anyone with possible information. Thank you.
