Description

In the late 1970's, 80's and early 90's we ran a busy photographic studio and picture framing business in Northwich - part of the commercial side of the business involved taking aerial photographs of many sites throughout the North West.

In the mid 1990s we changed direction with our lives and moved to North Wales, where we spent the next 15years, returning occasionally on visits and every time we came back, something had changed, a building had been demolished or erected, roads had been built or re-directed - times and towns - were changing.

North Wales is lovely, and we lived in some great places - four in all - but it wasn't 'home' so in 2011 we moved back to Northwich and saw some amazing changes taking place!

Realising we had an aerial image archive of how the town once looked in the 70s and 80s we decided to start the process of digitising our 'old' negatives in order to compile a series of collections of which this is one.

For those of you who remember the town as it was, we hope you enjoy viewing these images and maybe experience a touch of nostalgia as you do so - for those too young to remember and 'newcomers' to the area, we hope you find something of interest in the town's recent history.
