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 postcard view from around 1910 looks along Glynne Way past the Glynne Arms on the right hand side.

Prime Minister William Gladstone lived at Hawarden Castle later in life, and the Gladstone Memorial is visible in the middle of the road junction, and survives to this day.

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

For the record, it's the memorial that survives, not Gladstone himself! :)
