How beautiful is this spotless 1960s street in England. Neat terraced houses all with their original wooden windows, and all with tidy front gardens and pretty flowers instead of driveways.

The English countryside in 1910 and a rare example of a clapper stile gate. The horizontal beams are attached at the centre and normally kept in place by weights, so you can create a low point by pushing down on the other end.

I’m fascinated by the Victorians and their etiquette and strict social norms. I wonder what they would find jarring in 2025? Casual dress in public? Informal language and manners? Public displays of affection? Dining habits? Faces glued to mobile phones? What else would make them head for their fainting couches?

Pints in the pub amidst a haze of cigarette smoke. Coats still on and elbows on the bar. A great film of everyone having a good night out in the 1960s.

England, fifty years ago. A beautiful film of Saltaire, the Victorian model village in West Yorkshire. Lovely stone buildings by the river, a church, and a peaceful charm that feels like it belongs to another century.

A busy high street in 1960s London. Classic red Routemasters, an orderly queue at the bus stop with a policeman keeping a watchful eye, lovely old cars driving by, and people going about their day. A wonderful film of England in the 1960s.

Pope Leo XIII. Born in 1810, he was head of the Catholic Church from 20th February 1878 until his death on 20th July 1903. Filmed here in 1896, he is likely the earliest born person ever filmed.

Sunday morning in rural Britain and the village still hasn’t woken up, but as it gets nearer to midday there’s a stir in the air - for noon is the time the pubs open. The Sunday pint in the village pub, part of the English way of life. Filmed in 1959.
