More about this scene

This view looks in the opposite direction to No N125008. The supporting bearers to the timber frame of the Tudor building are visible in detail. The Ford Thames van bears a DD Gloucestershire registration; behind it we can just see the back of the latest Thames van which superseded it. The 15th-century tower of St Peter and St Paul church is on the skyline. It was built by the town's rich inhabitants during a period of religious fervour. This accounts for its striking majesty, with its mountains of masonry and panelled battlements; it rises to a stately 100 feet, so it is no wonder we can see it from here - it was meant to be seen for miles.

Larner And Mustoe Families
I am very interested in Northleach because my family connections, the Mustoes and Larners, go back several hundred years there and certainly in the case of the Larners back to the 1600's. Both families were shepherds and agricultural labourers. This was a very close knit community and as an example of that my great grandparents, Thomas Larner and Elizabeth Mustoe were first cousins.

The Hewer Alias Radbourn Of Northleach And Turkdean
Earlier this year I visited Northleach my husband's Ancesters hail from there.

It was farmed after his death by his son George and wife Elizabeth (nee Garne) They had 13 children, all survived to adulthood. As I walked around the village ...see more

Reference To Northleach.
I have no personal memories but my family history shows me that the HART familiy lived and worked in the nearby villages and some were born in North and East Leach. I am curious as to life in a bygone English village. Also about the 'wool' industry, which eventually declined - Arlington Mill - would have been the place of work for many of our forebears - and one address I have is of Manor Cottages, most ...see more

Thomas The Vicar
My great-great-great grandad was vicar of Northleach church in the late 1700s until 1816. His name was Thomas wilkinson. I visited Northleach earlier this year and I love it. It was interesting chatting to the owners of the Red Lion which one of Thomas's sons was landlord of for a time in the 1800s.

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.
