Other Places

My father travelled the country quite extensively but his obsession with the railways meant that most of the photo's he took weren't really of the places he visited!  However, there are a reasonable amount that I think are of more general interest and that is why I created this section of the website.  People have a great sense of nostalgia for the 1950's and 1960's so I'm sure these photographs will be appreciated in a similar fashion to those he took of Birmingham.

If you know the places shown here and can provide more information for the captions, please get in touch.
