Any Old School Boys Here?
Hi all are there any "old boy`s" on here that went to Cowplain Secondary Modern for Boy`s in the 50`s and 60`s. I left in 1964 and now live in Fareham but lived in Padnell Place in Cowplain #4 next to the Pounds family and yes Mick Dewey I can recall most of the families that lived in the Padnell area. Thank You.

Teachers
I started at padnell infant school in 1968 I think. I had Mrs Ison (? spelling) in the second year and Mrs Griffin in the third year. Was it Mrs Johnson in the first year? I then went to Cowplain Junior School for the next four years. I will have to disentangle my infant school memories from my junior school ones.

1st School
My first school around 1969, 5 years old. I still remember there being railway sleepers in the play ground, and we each had a hook to hang coats and PE bags on, mine was a rabbit. Lucky for me my nan lived very close so I used to go there for dinner and didn't have to eat school dinners. A good friend Andrew Gent started school with me, we were in the same class all through infant and junior school and also went to Hartplain senior together, I have not seen or heard of him since can anyone help?

More about Image Optimisation

All our photos are printed as optimised versions of their originals, this process can take anything from 15 minutes to several hours. This ensures that the product you get shows the true quality that Frith photos are renowned for.

Example of image retouching:

Genealogy & Research Images

Despite over 20 years’ work on the archive, these scans have still not been individually checked and may prove to be damaged, faded, or not of sufficient quality to ever be offered in our full product range. However, if you would particularly like to buy one of these please get in touch quoting the Frith negative number,(s) the town name and size of print you would like to buy. On receipt of your enquiry our archivist will check the scan and advise you if the quality is good enough.

What is an Album?

An album is a way to save a selection of Frith photos, maps and memories that are of interest to you.

Creating an Album enables you to make short lists and then make a final selection from the album. In particular it makes ordering things like calendars much easier - simply create an Album of the 12 photos you like and then use the Album when placng your order - our order process will give you this option.

You can create as many Albums as you want, so perhaps make one for your hometown, where you live now, where your parents live now etc.
