More about this scene

Madingley Hall was the home of Colonel Harding - in 1909 he was carrying out an extensive restoration programme. The 16th-century hall was built as a hunting lodge, using a hammer-beam roof taken from Anglesey Abbey after it was demolished. The hall was later remodelled as a mansion house for the Hynde and Cotton families. The very fine 15th-century gateway came from the Old Schools in Cambridge in c1754. Queen Victoria rented Madingley Hall in 1861 while the Prince of Wales was at Cambridge.

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.
