The Monks
I remember in my summer hols helping an American/Canadian couple to move the gold coloured Budda and other things into their place, ready for the monks arrival. They used to grow all their own veg and herbs there and it was a big eye opener for a Biddulph lad of my age...... great memories.

Working As A Medical Secretary
I worked here at Addenbrooke's Hospital (old site) from 1966 - 1969, before moving on to the new site. Best years of my life living and working in Cambridge during this period. Anyone else here at that time?

Aylesbury

Built in the 1840s, this row of coastguard cottages still stands, although Pegwell itself has been engulfed by Ramsgate.
Penarth has achieved status both as a sought-after suburb of Cardiff and also as a summer resort. Here we can see the busy beach scene complete with the 19th-century pier.
It is hard to imagine how sailing ships once came in and out of here.
To the left of the war memorial is Boots the Chemist, with its old-fashioned shop frontage. It is no longer on this site.
By the mid 1950s, Halsey's had taken over all the premises in the row, with the exception of a jewellers, James Walker. The billboard that was above the shop has been removed.
Glen Helen is situated about two miles north of St John's, and was developed from 1850 onwards by a Mr Marsden who named the glen after his daughter.
Children are trying their luck at fishing in the Aylesbury Arm of the Grand Junction Canal. Just beyond the bridge is the delightfully named Hills and Partridges Lock.
By the late 1920s, not a bathing machine graces the water's edge in this view of the crowded Margate Sands, looking towards the Harbour with the Pierhead Lighthouse.
On the corner with St Stephen's Lane stands the Ancient House, a remarkable building which is probably the best surviving example of medieval pargetting - decorative plasterwork - in Britain.
The George, built in 1598, was situated at the junction between the High Street, Market Street, and Fore Street, and was the main focal point of the village.
The lower water level is revealing more of the bridge piers. 'Thomas Butcher' to the right has been redeveloped and the steps are no longer to be seen.
The Britannia Pier is at the northern end of Marine Parade, the main seafront thoroughfare.
An austere inn, perhaps, but welcoming none the less. The architecture is vaguely Dutch, in line with that of many East Anglian houses, with its double pitch roof.
Children bathe in a brook on a hot day in Stanwell. Perhaps their parents are seeking a different kind of refreshment in the nearby Rising Sun public house.
This photograph shows the graceful architecture of Maidenhead Bridge, distinguished by its elegant arches, striking stonework and fine balustrade.
Ten miles due east of Haverfordwest, Narberth was once a significant commercial centre. A tollgate was erected here but was destroyed during the Rebecca Riots in 1842-3.
At this time Ormskirk was a busy little town of around 6,500 people. On market days the favourite places for a tipple were the Wheatsheaf, the Talbot and the King's Arms.
Less than a decade after photograph No 32343, the focus of attention is the motor bus in the street. In contrast, note the girl and large-wheeled pram on the left.
The lake and reservoir have been stocked with trout and coarse fish for the benefit of local anglers.
This view of the riverside was taken from Bickleigh Bridge. The lowering skies are clearly standard English holiday weather; the cameraman is having to fight his eternal battle against bad light.
This view, taken from the bottom of Main Street, looks up the hill towards the station. It shows the bustling town, with a carriage and a cart the only wheeled traffic.
