More about this scene

North of Fir Tree Road and just beyond Banstead railway station is Cuddington Park Golf Course; the name is a reminder of the parish and village of Cuddington, which was cleared for Henry VIII's Nonsuch Palace. East of this golf course is the Banstead Downs Golf Course, and then east of the railway lies the rest of Banstead Downs, which are undeveloped heath and woodland. The golf club house, a rather distinguished Lutyens-esque Surrey vernacular revival building, has expanses of tiled roofs and a rather grand entrance bay with golden sandstone dressings. It opened on 1 January 1929.

Beechholme
I grew up in the Children's Home, Beechholme that was only a few yards from Nork, where children from the home went to spend their pocket money. I lived at Beechholme from 1956 to 1962. I spent much of my time in the home wandering over the Downs studying insects. Much of the land that we wandered over has deteriorated now into impenetrable woods and scrubland through lack of management and most of the insects of the chalk ...see more

Nork Shops
My Gran lived in the flat above the shop in the photo, next to the garage. Her front door was down the side, and her windows (both open) looked out over shops. The bay window was her living room and her kitchen had the dual aspect windows on the corner. We were friends with the Hookhams who ran the Wavy Line store to the left of the garage.

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.
