This is the series of ‘then and now’ photographs that I put on my blog in the summer of 2014/15, which led to my writing monthly history articles for The Local community newspaper.
To mark the 10 year anniversary of this series, in the summer of 2024/25 I revisited each of the locations and took another photograph to add to each entry.
