Thank you! Princelet Str looks as though it should have also looked like that in the 1920’s. I like to think that I am looking at your photos and peering into my families’ past as it was then and continued to be…into the 60’s. If you have a photo of Fieldgate Street or Old Artillery Lane…I would treasure it. Your pictures also show that London is timeless and the past lives on, into the future. regards, Miriam

I adore these black and white photos they are inspiring me to take up my art again and create a picture of bygone days I have just moved to Eastbourne and have retired so have a lot of time to create thank you for these delightful photos

I agree with Roger Owen, that “…you feel as though you should be depressed by the wet streets, the grubby kids, the craggy oldies and the destitute landscape – but the viewer just feels priviledged to witness these amazing images. “

So poor and so rich is life. Great black and white photographs from the 60s.

Another beautiful set of moving, powerful images that bring my past racing back.
My grandson asked what London was like when I was “young”. Your photographic record
speaks volumes.
Thank you John.

Perhaps the best set yet. I’m in awe. Hats off Mr. Claridge.

At the 59 Club is so brilliant. I wish I was there. These images are so absorbing and I feel priviledged to be able to experience them.

Once again having read everyone else’s comments there really seems nothing left to say,except they are such powerful images and leave one with such an explicit look at the time – and a very important part of our lives growing up. I love them all John they are as ever wonderful
