Hi guys,

Doing a project in the WIT on a street in town, ive picked Henrietta street. The idea is a look at the history and evolvement of the street now ive covered all the usual sources such as census/ local library /archives newspapers etc

What would be great is any old photos of the street. Maybe someone bought their first bike in Wrights?

Or perhaps someone has an old photo of Glancys Garage ( now the kite centre)

All help appreciated
