Burton Bradstock through the Camera's Eye over 150 years
 |
 |
A collection of over 250 historic photographs of the village and associated documents.
|
All the enclosed documents and pictures were collected over six years by Chris Wilkinson who lives at the White House on the village green. We are grateful for his significant contribution to the historical content of this web site. Chris has made every effort to obtain permission from copyright holders to put the pictures in this exhibition. However in some cases the original pictures have not been located and we would be very interested in hearing from anyone who has them. Most material is shown in the streets where they belong. The remainder can be seen in one of the 'General' headings. |
