These excellent images are reproduced from a photograph album which was put together at the time, including captions, by Stephen Strachan Rogers. It remained with him until his death in 1962 and was then retained within the family. We are very grateful that his great-niece, Alison Hollingsworth, realising its local importance, has now kindly made it available.

As always, we welcome comments any further information.
