Norton High Street c1950s
A photograph showing Norton High Street probably in the mid 1950s and judging by the length of the shadows I think it may be mid Summer…
The parade of shops lead off to the right and finish at The Yorkshire Penny Bank on the corner of Leven Road, I remember the bank having its name etched into all of its windows when I was working in Norton in the early 1960s, signage was much more restrained in those days.

Joseph Street VE Day Celebrations c1945
This is the celebration that took place in Joseph Street, Portrack on VE Day 1945. I understand the object hanging above the residents is an effigy of Adolf Hitler. Joseph Street is where my paternal grandparents lived but would not be in this picture, they both died in 1944.
