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

First impressions may be deceptive, as the folk in this otherwise immaculate-looking street in fact look as if they may be very poor indeed.

Lomax Street still exists, but all the Victorian buildings, bar one or two, have now been demolished, making it very hard to see exactly where on the street this photograph was taken.

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