Then and Now........  click photos to enlarge.




The pictures below are taken from the same place by "The Cross" in Great Longstone village.
The left  picture was taken in 1909 and the right picture was taken in 2011.
The fact that a Landrover happened to be turning in the same position as the cart and horses is purely coincidental but very lucky on my part.
Most obvious is the number of vehicles now on the road and the war memorial and several new buildings are evident on the later picture. I would imagine folks who have lived in the village for a long time will be able to spot even more changes.
It was a strange feeling standing in the very same spot where someone had been standing to take a photograph 102 years earlier, I just wonder how many other people have stood there and what their thoughts were as they looked down Main St.
If you have any pictures or stories, myths or legends about our lovely village please send them in to the editor for publication. All photographs will be returned and credit will be given to the owner of the pictures, articles etc. when they are printed.
 Thank you ...Editor.
