More about this scene

The name of the pub on the left is still the same - Nelson Butt – but it is now a Free House and no longer belongs to Bateman's. L G Moden next door, a baker of superb bread and mouth-watering Swiss rolls, is no longer there and has been replaced by a Little Italy Restaurant. Shaw's Tea Room is on the right - they advertise jazz nights.

An extract from Lincolnshire Living Memories.

Methodist Chapel Thorpe Bank Little Steeping.
Hi, does anyone know any history or have any photographs of the Chapel on Thorpe Bank, Little Steeping.  It was built in 1874 and was converted into a residential property in the 1980's.  We purchased it last year and have been searching for information as we'd love to know more about our lovely old chapel but haven't had any luck. I think it was previously known as the Primitive Methodist Chapel, Thorpe Bank, Thorpe St Peter. Hope someone can help.  Thanks.

Indianna Watson

My great great grandma, Indianna, was born in 1842 in Spilsby, her dad was Samuel Watson, does anyone have any information of this family. Indianna had several siblings, her mother was called Mary Turner. They also lived on Ashby Rd at some time, possibly either owning a farm or working on a farm. Indianna left home to work in Cheetham in Manchester as a servant. Does anyone know of the family or is indeed related to any of the siblings also the history of Samuel & Mary . Thanks Alan

More about Image Optimisation

All our photos are printed as optimised versions of their originals, this process can take anything from 15 minutes to several hours. This ensures that the product you get shows the true quality that Frith photos are renowned for.

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.
