A rare colour film showing a Police Public Call Box on the street in London in the 1950s, with the colourful cars of the era adding their own charm to the scene.

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?

London in the mid 1960s. When you could stroll through Downing Street and right up to No. 10 to have your photo taken.

Beautiful 1940s colour footage of the Cenotaph in London. Built just 20 years earlier replacing a temporary memorial created at the end of the Great War. Sir Edwin Lutyens waived his fee for its design.
