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
This image of the newly-built Wilts and Dorset Bank in Swindon was included in a book by William Morris (grandfather of Desmond Morris) written in his capacity as founder of the Swindon Advertiser.
Morris says that the buildings on the left (which, unlike the bank are now demolished) were typical of the 'Dutch' style that dominated the High Street.
Hint: Drag the orange pegman to see the Streetview image...
