Title: Old photographs
Post by: Gudlucker on Sunday 16 August 09 21:34 BST (UK)

As a new member I remember seeing a reference to a site where old photographs of Nottingham could be found, but I can't remember how to access this.

Can anyone help please.

Jane, I am interested in any old photographs that depict Nottingham through the 20th century, especially those from around the 50's and 60's.

The sites suggested are very good and have given me lots to look at.

Thanks again.
