Mainly photos of York, UK, mainly its ordinary streets, factories, shops, rather than its famous historic buildings (as these tend not to change). There have been many changes in the ordinary places beyond the historic core.
Thanks to Jim, Andy and others for the 1960s/70s and older photos.
Images from other locations have also been added - 'found photos' bought by my mother at car boot sales in York.
