Colville Road, Sparkbrook
I was born at 4 Back, 34 Colville Road in January 1950. These back houses were very small with a shared outside toilet. We had all manner of creatures that lived there too, massive spiders, blackbats and beetles that ...Read more

Stanley Front Street
I remember walking from Tanfield Lea to South Moor to visit my grandmother on a Sunday morning when I was 10. I walked to save the bus fare so I could buy a comic from the man who sold Sunday papers, magazines and comics from the doorway of Broughs doorway.

Barking Lake
Not sure of the date; one of my memories is being over the park the whole day fishing and catching a jar full of stickle backs. The were so packed in I think when I got them home they were nearly all dead.

The fishermen of Brixham refined the technique of trawling for their catch close to the bottom of the sea; this technique mostly replaced the earlier drifting.
A little more than one mile to the west of Leith is the small fishing village of Newhaven. It was here that James IV founded a royal dockyard where he could build his navy.
The timber-framed and jettied building on the left, now the Charles the First Coffe House, is where Charles's queen, Henrietta Maria, stayed during the Civil War.
The Angel Hotel on the left was one of three to cater for the motorist; the others were the George and Dragon and the Brunswick.
The second element of Bulphan's name is the word 'fen'.
A crowded WSV 'Tern' prepares to embark on a trip down Windermere from the Waterhead pier on a summer's day.
Traditional English teashops reached their zenith in the peaceful days of the 1950s, having made a comeback after the restrictions and rationing of the Second World War.
Chipping Norton's church was rebuilt during the days of wool trade prosperity.
Cuddesdon was once the home of the bishops of Oxford. There was a palace here, set ablaze in 1644 to prevent the Parliamentary troops in the Civil War from seizing it.

The church of St Wilfred is another of the hundreds of Lincolnshire limestone churches, and it has not changed in almost fifty years. The church was damaged by fire in 1599 and restored in 1601.
The days of floodlighting have arrived too, although at this time the lights are illuminating the George's sign rather than the front of the building as they do today.
Here we see the south side of Wimborne’s square at a time when the bank was called the Midland. This, with the nearby Minster, was the heart of the town.
