Oh To Be Sweet Sixteen Again!

I believe the girl walking in the photo with the shopping bag is myself at the age of 16 - 17 judging by my hair style at that time. I recognise the skirt as one I had made myself and my walk also. I also remember ...Read more

Chainhurst In The Early 1960's

We moved from London to Chainhurst in 1961 into a small cottage two doors away from the Royal Oak Public House. I remember they let us use an upstairs room once a week so we could play records and I suppose keep us ...Read more

A memory of Chainhurst by Dawn Brady

Childhood

I was born in London, and my family moved to Culberry Cottage in East Pennard when I was about 8yrs or 9yrs old.  That was a short but happy stay in the area amongst the farm lands, animals and walks in the fields picking wild ...Read more

A memory of East Pennard in 1951 by Brenda Carter

Snellings The Butchers

Not so much as a memory but an observation. The butchers shop shown in foreground - Snellings - is still there and the board to the front of the railings had what was on that week at the local cinema - The Commodore, long since demolished.

A memory of St Mary Cray in 2006 by Graham Wootten

1970s To Present Memories

Moved To Barns Green In 1958

My family moved to Barns Green in 1958 purchasing Cootes Farm and then Bachelor's Farm shortly after (hardly large enough to be called farms, but that was their names). I was 15 at the time and had many friends and ...Read more

Caption For Chipstead, Hogs Cross C1955

The fence on the right marks the extent of Shabden Park and its disappearance now gives a much more open appearance across attractive downland.

Caption For Empingham, The Church And Church Street C1960

Concrete tiles, soldier arches and stretcher- bond brickwork combine in this aesthetic desert. There is nothing more to add.

Caption For Castle Acre, The Priory, The West Front 1891

It is late Norman, apart from the large pointed window over the middle arch; on either side of this are two smaller arches which led to the north and south aisles.

Caption For Stamford, St Mary's Church 1922

To the right is the Town Hall, which was originally situated over the north end of the bridge, with only a narrow arch for traffic.

Caption For Walberswick, Bridge 1919

Horse-drawn carriages and motorised vehicles had to take a much longer nine-mile inland route via Blythburgh. This pretty village with its broad green is now popular with artists.

Caption For Hambledon, St Peter's Church 1904

St Peter`s Church was built in 1846, replacing a much earlier place of worship on this site.

Caption For Lytham, The Pier 1921

The posters and the banner underneath the new arch suggest slightly risqué entertainment.

Caption For Lyme Regis, Cannington Viaduct 1903

It remains a state-of-the-art example of concrete construction, though the third arch from the west had to be reinforced with a pair of inner arches.

Caption For Maidenhead, The River And Bridge 1906

This photograph shows the graceful architecture of Maidenhead Bridge, distinguished by its elegant arches, striking stonework and fine balustrade.

Caption For Alnwick, The Hotspur Gate C1950

Above the entrance there is a much-decayed lion rampant, emblem of the Percy family, and above that are corbels that once carried a machicolation to enhance the defensive capability of the flanking

Caption For Cardiff, County Hall C1960

The opening in 1912 of the County Hall in Cathays Park provided a much-needed centrally contained administrative centre for Glamorgan.

Caption For Cardiff, Catherdal, Nave East 2004

The magnificent aluminium figure is mounted on a bold concrete arch with the cylindrical organ case, itself adorned with large Pre- Raphaelite figures.

Caption For Grimsby, Royal Hotel 1890

The old Royal was demolished in the 1960s; it thrives today as a much smaller hotel called the Humber Royal, part of the Forte hotel chain.

Caption For Potton, Market Square C1955

Potton Clock House was opened in 1955, replacing a much older building. The original clock tower stood in an area known as The Shambles, and was surrounded by small shops.

Caption For Giant's Causeway, The Wishing Arch C1897

The character of Antrim's coast is nowhere better expressed than where it is possible to see the black basalt overlying the white chalk rocks, as here at the Wishing Arch.

Caption For Plympton, The Town Hall 1890

The arched walk under the Town Hall is known as the Butterwalk.

Caption For Thorpe Arnold, St Mary's Church, The Nave C1955

The chancel arch was rebuilt by Johnson, a Melton Mowbray architect, who achieved little of note. His work appears to have been virtually confined to the immediate area, which may be just as well!

Caption For St Ives, Bridge 1899

In 1645, during the Civil War, one arch was removed and replaced with a drawbridge. The drawbridge was demolished and the round-headed arches were rebuilt in 1716.

Caption For Killarney, Brickeen Bridge C1955

The island and the Desmesne are connected by Brickeen Bridge, a handsome stone bridge with a pointed arch.

Caption For Norwich, Cathedral, From Lower Close 1891

This old view gives a fine impression of how long the cathedral is.The magnificent row of arched openings nearer the camera is the ruined priory infirmary.

Caption For Aldeburgh, High Street 1894

His poem about the embittered fisherman Peter Grimes inspired an opera by a much later and better known resident, Benjamin Britten.

Caption For Seaton, The Beach And Promenade 1898

It is now a much larger town, and a popular resort. The Coffee Tavern (right) has survived as part of the Hook and Parrot public house.

Caption For Saltburn By The Sea, Hazelgrove Caravan Site C1955

It has become a much more congested caravan site today.

Caption For Taunton, County Cricket Ground 1902

The headquarters of Somerset County Cricket Club, founded in 1875, lie on the south bank of the River Tone; although the grandstands are much changed, the arched one still in essence survives.
