Picture Gallery

Welcome to our gallery.

These pictures have been gathered by the Heritage Group in good faith, but we don't always know the original source, so we apologise if we have breached anyone's copyright, and we undertake to remove any photographs if requested to do so.

The captions on the photographs have sometimes been arrived at by deduction, or informed guesswork, so please correct us if you think we have got it wrong. In particular, if you recognise anyone or anything that has not been captioned, please let us know. Even apparently trivial additional information my well be of interest.

Above all, if you have any other pictures of this area, please get in touch. We can make copies, often better than the original, and would love to extend this collection.
