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?

For centuries, the pattern of community life in England showed little change. The farms, the manor house, the church, the inn, the village. And so we find it sometimes today, off the beaten track.

A great glimpse of London in 1968. Commuters walk down to the Underground, men in shirts and ties and a few ladies still in mini skirts. There’s even a view of the old wooden escalators.

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.
