About


Co-founder of Our Town Story. If you have any questions about the site, or wish to provide feedback, please visit the Admin forum and post in the appropriate place - we'll do our best to help you out as quickly as we can!

We really want Our Town Story to be an album for your old photos, to fill in the gaps in the history books of our villages, towns and cities. We would also love for those pictures to be able to help others - for instance by using reminiscence therapy in treating dementia

We're still a work in progress, and we appreciate all suggestions and observations!

Image Details

Posted in 1917, this picture, taken from the Castle walls, looks down on The Esplanade and towards Rochester Bridge. The balustrading along the Esplanade was taken from the old bridge that the pictured one replaced.

The cart in the foreground is for carrying logs to be processed for timber. The length of the cart can be adjusted depending on the lengths of the cut trees.

Hint: Drag the orange pegman to see the Streetview image...
