Leek Post & Times

Memory Lane

Four pages rememberin­g how we played

-

O VER the coming issues of the Post & Times, this special collectabl­e photo series will explore what it was like to live, work and play in North Staffordsh­ire, from the 19th century to more recent decades. Faces, places and moments in history are frozen in time in our unique picture archives, and putting this series together has turned up many images that haven’t been seen since the first time they were used in our pages. Through them, we want to tell the stories of our communitie­s, through good times and bad. Stories that show the long legacy of caring that we see continued today in the dedication and sacrifice of our NHS heroes. Stories of familiar street scenes that show how much has changed in our neighbourh­oods - and how much has not. Stories of the fads and fashions, the music we listened to and the clothes we wore. Each week we will look at a different aspect of life in North Staffordsh­ire over the years, focusing on themes as varied as fashion, the workplace, family life and transport. Don’t miss your chance every Tuesday over the next four weeks to complete your own Memory Lane souvenir edition that you can look at time and time again. To ensure you don’t miss out, you’ll find details on of how you can get The Leek Post delivered directly to your door or reserved on page 18 of today’s newspaper. You can also order your own high-quality photograph­ic print copy of any picture you see in these pages, to find out more, visit www.mirrorpix.com And as if this wasn’t enough, don’t forget to check out www.memorylane.co.uk, the UK’S new website, packed full of amazing pictures and memories from years gone by. We hope you enjoy reading Memory Lane as much as we’ve had fun finding these great images and putting it all together!
