Stamford in the early 20th century

Gil Langley has kindly given permission for these pictures, selected from the Dolby Bros. publication Picturesque Stamford, to be shown here. The pictures date from the first decade of the 20th century. Dave Baxter digitised the pictures in 2018. We are most grateful to both of them.

​The captions are those used in the book, including a number of differences from modern spelling.
