Stamford in the 1870s
Gil Langley has kindly given permission for these pictures, selected from those discovered in an old album, to be shown here. Dave Baxter digitised the pictures in 2018. We are most grateful to both of them.
The picture of the Burghley boathouse is the only known image of it. The triumphal arch in St Paul's Street was erected in September 1875 to welcome the newly-married Lord Burghley.
