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
The Cloth Hall at Colne was built in 1775 for the sale of woollen goods. The area was important for the production of wool and worsted from the Middle Ages until the early 20th century, though it was gradually replaced during the 19th century by the cotton industry.
