The Research Team was very pleased indeed to receive this album from John Collinson of photographs taken either by his father or his uncle Norman: not only do personal photographs often show areas of Lyme neglected by professional photographers, but as in this case, they have an exact date: July 1926. Although not in pristine condition, given they are now nearly 100 years old, they are remarkably clear - and very informative.
