Over the years through his own endeavours but mainly the generosity of others Brian Stott has collected a large number of postcards and other images of Rimington and Middop, going back well over 100 years. These are now accessible and have been arranged into appropriate groupings. There are a lot of buildings, especially farmhouses, we don't have an old picture of. If you can provide one of these pictures please get in touch. New pictures keep turning up and any other ones would be very welcome to add to the collection and build a record of people and places in the village in times gone by. If you have any pictures as digital images they can be sent to Brian at
Grateful thankyous also go to Trevor and Lesley Marklew and Barrie Tyrer without whose additions, time and technical wizardry this material would not be available to everyone. Barbara Spencer, Dorothy Falshaw and Shirley Penman have also provided pictures.
