Our Photo Collection
The Timespan photograph collection comprises over 600 original archival images and over two thousand digital images. Some of these images have been catalogued and arranged into topic headings and are available to view in the public archive. There is a variety of subject matter including people, places and events, as well as special events and everyday activities – the list is endless.
The work is on-going to title each image and provide descriptions including who is in the photo, where and when it was taken etc. Timespan would be delighted to hear from anyone who can provide information about the photos in our collection.
Here is a selection of photos from our collection for you to enjoy.
